O......k. Weird.

I'm guessing Pachter got ahold of the Nikkei projections.

you know the way he talks, he almost sounds like he works for sony PR, the job he does is only slightly worse then sonys current pr team... firing who ever is incharge of that could save them money

But... it has been obvious as early as December that Sony's finances would likely be in trouble. Isn't it his job as an analyst to figure out these things before he reads them in the media?

I think that's because he's the only analyst who regularly speaks in the media about gaming-related stuff. And of course because as you say he's hilariously bad.

BUUUUUUUUUULSHIT!!

HE probably saw how much stick he got for his "prediction" actually did some research on how Sony are doing pretty bad and though ... hmmm maybe I was wrong?

June is no better than April ... unless Sony cut costs, not once but twice. Seriously why does this man get the limelight.

Yeah, you'd think.

Maybe he thought things were working out better though due to stuff like the "PS3 making money on each system" reports floating around from place to place.

I mean he does other stuff too right?

Pachter should discuss gaming with jesus kung fu magic, im sure the results would be spectacular

I would pay to see this.

Hell, we could up the people count.... Let's put Pachter, Sean Malstrom, JohnLucas, The J-man and leo-J into a room and see what happens.

We could put The Source in there too as a voice of reason, but I think he might get drowned out.
