Billy Pidgeon should quit his job as an analyst and just mow grass for a living.

So where do I sign up to become an "independent" analyst? Doesn't look like it takes too much skill to be one.

Horrible to think that there are investors out there that listen to what people like this tell them.

Also, great tweet btw:

The only current gen videogaming going on now is on PC and Nintendo...

Obviously, because the PS players are from the hardcore crowd. When some of them feel the need of having a secondary console, they'll obviously go for the X1 instead of the WiiU; thus setting in motion what johnlucas was saying about being victor while being the secondary console of the players.

Honestly if I was gonna do the whole secondary route, I would get a wii u for the more mature rpgs that are on there versus the xbone.

Edited to fix something.

I'll get a WiiU as secondary, but more for Nintendo SW mainly platformers.

I guess this "analyst" doesn't realize that X360 owners will also only upgrade to PS4 as well as a lot of them already have.

Why would they?

Can they play Halo and Gears on the PS4 now?

Why would they want to play only Halo and Gears after seeing MS drop the ball for exclusives during the later years in the 360 era? The Industry and gamers around the world see time and time again how Sony supports their home consoles each generation. Just like the PS2 era where some PS fans moved to 360 last gen, a lot are moving back to PS this gen. You can cover your eyes all you want, 2008 is over..
