IGNORE THE TYPO IN THE TITLE. I CAN'T EDIT IT.

Pachter: GTA IV So Did Not Drive Console Sales

I know, we don't run many of these predictions anymore, but I've an inkling this one's on the money, so up it goes. Analyst Michael Pachter has rolled the goat's bones, read the tea leaves and predicted that while software sales for May were strong, hardware sales were not. Even though they were supposed to be, with both Microsoft and Sony hoping/expecting a big sales boost in the wake of GTA IV's release. He cites some simExchange and VGChartz numbers in his figures, which as guesstimates aren't as rock-solid as we can hope for, but since the real NPD numbers won't be with us til later in the week, guesstimates are all we've got. Make do.

Means neoGaf will go batshit crazy

The site is going to implode with all of the fail coming off of this guy. Damn you Pachter!!!!

HIS NAME IS PACTHER, NOT PATCHER. READ YOUR TITLE. THEN READ YOUR ORIGINAL POST. SEE A DIFFERENCE?

yeah I basically set it up to annoy neogaf.

Yeah, it gets a bit ridiculous after a while.

And it wouldn't surprise me with the liking he's taken to Mr. Mazel. 

^haha nice job thesource

I'll fix the typo in the title. 

No, wait, I CAN'T.

 The irony is you spelled it wrong yourself.

Okay, his name is Pachter, Pachter. As in Pack-ter. My goodness, this is worse than the time Peter tried to spell the word foundry...

Quick, someone make a skit!
