Now, now everybody. 1 out of every 100 times, Pachter makes a good prediction. We'll just hope this is that one time.

THat's all Emily Rogers needed to be a Nintendo insider.

anybody wanting to buy a NX is like, completely scared now because this guy is always excited for the wrong reasons

Remember his prediction for Midway in 2008? -_-

When he said things where looking up a profit was surely coming and they closed in 2009, :'(




Twitter @CyberMalistix

But wasn't he right about the Wii U even before it was released? Or when we didn't even know the specs?

The man's actually making sense lately... what is this madness!?

He says bad stuff about Nintendo, he is horrible. He says good stuff then all of a sudden he makes sense

It's not that he automatically makes sense because he's saying good stuff about Nintendo.  It's just refreshing to hear him be positive on the company for once.  But it's also a little worrying...

 



RIP

In all seriousness though, how can you have a good feeling about something you know next to nothing about? lol.

I never pay attention to what Pachther saying, but I need to admit that I agree with his estimates of potential NX sales, I also expecting NX sales in range of 20-50m.



All the Pachter jokes aside, this actually makes sense. I like his shows (pach attack, Pachter factor) and I understand why he doesn't get Nintendo. They're a hard company to predict. But this analyzis is sound.



I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.

Hes actually a huge Nintendo fan.

He is very often overly positive about nintendo, even when he probably shouldnt be.

He sees things from the perspective of "profits" makeing, more than as a gameing fan though.

No it doesnt. He doesnt know anything about the NX. Its just blind speculation no better than what members here on vgcharts could do.

Until someone actually knows what the system will be like, what it can do, what it ll cost.... its not "makeing sense" to make predictions about it, or sound analyzing.



I think he might have a point... now.
Wii U really ended up being something between generations, but NX could actually put up a fight to NEO and XB S and who knows, in 2 or 3 years we will see a NX 2.0 to fight the new consoles from Sony and MS.



so now the failure of nx is confirmed...
