Soo, how much does he earn? I'm a complete idiot, but I want his job. Doesn't look like I need to go to school for it.

Ps: I'm not really an idiot.

Pachter has the job that everyone on VGChartz aspires to have. He gets payed handsomely to pull predictions out of his ass and troll. Troll like crazy.

Next week on "As the Pachter turns"

"The Wii is a kiddy box for babies and grandmas"
"There are, like, 2 games for the PS3 that anyone would want to play"
"RROD, LOLZ"

30 is way too many. I think 5 full games and a couple of mini games, one free with the camera, would be a great start. I would also like to see some past games get updates to use Natal at launch too.

Of the five Wii games in my sig that have yet to release, four of them have been delayed.  Ghostbusters, The Conduit, Little King's Story, and Wii Sports Resort were all pushed back later than expected.

4/5 = 80%

I would guess that HappySqurriel is closer than you.

Are you suggesting that devoting ourselves enough we could all become Pachters?    

You know, when I first came to this site and I would see threads made about this mysterious 'Pachter' fellow and his insane predictions, I used to read them and think, 'Hmm..maybe this guy could be onto something..his predictions are so radical it just might happen.'

Now? Now I think he's just a mumbling idiot. I haven't heard a 'sane' statement from him in a long time. He hasn't made a single pro-SONY statement besides 'correcting' himself over his insane anti-SONY predictions that are way off, well after the fact.

To be quite honest, I can't remember the last time I read where he talked about MS or Nintendo really at all, let alone nearly as negatively as he does SONY. To me, all Pachter is, is an analyst of popular opinion. He sides with popular opinion so when he's wrong, he can say, 'Yeah well I wasn't the only one - everyone thought that. So you can't blame me for getting it wrong!'

Except yes, Mr. Pachter, I can and I do blame you for being a mumbling idiot.

I was checking out the neogaf NPD thread and saw this :D

Oh, and this, supposedly from Pacher at GAF:

I think it's actually him, but with gaf who knows...

SCOOP: Pachter pollution reaches Italian coasts!
As if mucilaginous algae many years ago in the Adriatic, or, more recently, red tides in the Tyrrhenian Sea weren't enough, this Summer we have Pachter too, Punto Informatico cited his analysis on Natal in an article yesterday (I won't translate it, it's a bunch of second hand news we all VGCharterz already know ):

Pachter Jellyfish invasion! POMFG! Italy is doomed!!!

Wow NJ5 nice find. He is such a troll :/

How can the guy he's quoting be a jerk just because he's pointing out that he's a crap predictor.
