I love how a quick reply to a pretty open question has lead to him now hating Zelda and not counting it as relevent. I certainly wouldn't have time to think about every little thing regarding E3 when asked on the spot...

I enjoy him anyway, the whole hate and press he gets is way out of hand though. I think he is very knowledgeable on video games but everyone seems to be gunning for him and chances are the press try to make him say things he's not saying just to generate some hits.

The fact is he seems to be talked about here every single day so he must be doing something right.

Yea, I kind of enjoy what he has to say.  Sometimes he's right, sometimes he's wrong...not much different then most industry analyst.  But he just happens to be an analyst for my favorite past time.  One of the lessons that has been very helpful in life for me is to listen to everybody.  They may be absolutely correct or they may be out of their mind.  Either way you have learned something.

they hate him, because he MIGHT dislike their fav console/company. grow up people, not everyone is going to enjoy your tastes. I think he's funny IMO

Here is an article on the track record of Pachter predicting things (that is his job, by the way):

he always picks on third party companies who make exclusive games.
mostly PS3 games though.
