Pachter predicts Wii Xmas Victory

“I don't think that Nintendo's holiday season is in trouble at all,” Pachter told Industry Gamers. “The Wii has dropped from first to third, but the new models for Xbox 360 and the launch of PS3 Move had something to do with that, and it's likely only temporary.

“I think that Mr. Iwata is right when he says that the Wii is more of a holiday purchase, as the core audience has long been satisfied, and the more casual audience comprises the much larger portion of the addressable market.

“With effective marketing, a slew of great games, and some likely support at retail, I expect the Wii to once again become the best selling console in November and December.”

The Wii is really screwed now!



Anyone can guess. It takes no effort to throw out lots of predictions and have some of them be correct. You are not and wiser or better for having your guesses be right. Even a blind man can hit the bullseye.

The Wii is Domed? Last time I checked it was rather rectangular.



no way. the end is near



everything he said makes sense



So when is the Wii going to start changing the trend it has been following?  Nothing so far seems to be changing the negative trend.



Its libraries that sell systems not a single game.
