Famed Wedbush Morgan analyst Michael Pachter is confident that Wii U will be a complete sell out through till April at the least. Pachter has been surprisingly upbeat about Nintendo today as he mentioned earlier that the pricing for Wii U is reasonable, and that the first and third-party launch window games look solid.
i will have 3 by release for resale , great business oppurtunity
You are a terrible person, and I dislike you greatly.
You are pretty much a scumbag.
So you are willing to risk yourself being hated by so many people that see your comment just because you want to make a quick buck?
Boy, you are going to be in so much trouble, you dun goof’d
He’s not a scumbag. It really is a great way to make money. I’m not gonna do it, but you can’t down a guy for wanting to make money.
He is a scumbag.By buying up extra Wii Us for resale,he’s taking them away from fellow gamers who legitimately want one.He’s also taking advantage of those same gamers by listing them on ebay for astronomical prices.
Wait until they become hard to find and sell them for 500. That’s what I’m doing.
GENIUS o.o… Hell if you can afford to do it in the first place go for it
Great way to make money, but cmon bro, dont be a dick
I don’t understand why he’s a scumbag. He is not losing Nintendo any money, and he will probably make some money. Whats wrong with that?
He’s buying an extra two Wii Us that could have gone to other fans.
Well, they will still go to other fans. Super passionate fans willing to shovel out more money.
So by your logic,it’s ok to take advantage of people for the sake of one’s own greed.
How is it taking advantage of people? Do they NEED a Wii U? Is it imperative that they get one? Their desire for a Wii doesn’t supersede his desire to make money. Fair is fair.
It will. I’m actually confident it will surpass Wii with this Nintendo TVii thing.
Agreed.
Yep, it’s confirmed:
Pachter is on his period -_-
indeed XD
I’m on my period just because I say good things about the Wii U? I think you little kid-tendo fans should go back to kindergarten.
It was just a joke relax. And you call me a kid when you’re the one who is childishly impersonatin a rather infamous character and goin around layin down insults. Real mature, bruh
I know, right.Anyway, I bet the trolls are really butthurt from patcher,the king of trolls,admitted that wii u was great.
hellooo i’m from a kindergarten and..and fuck you i love my mommy :)
I LOL’ed to that
O_O
Im not so sure nintendo showed some games that werent very casual just a couple
Nintendo’s thirdparty’s and some of their own published games are doing that.
pulease ‘casual’ . Nintendo land and NSMBU look absoloutly awesome and i am ‘hardcore’
In other words, the Wii U will fail. What he says will happen will always turn out to be the opposite… -.-
That isn’t what that means. He said that so many people are going to buy it that it will always be sold out until at least April.
not really what he saying people will think it just an add-on if it being sold separately
he did say some things that turned out to be at least partially correct (but were also pretty obvious to begin with)
however i wouldn’t pay any attention to this man no matter what he says about a product
I love how he’s already backtracking
Of course patcher we know
your gravatar makes it look even funnier XD
I can’t wait for it to be honest. price seems a bit much but it will be worth it once it it start making even more stuff :)
Hell has froze over.
yup
And Heaven is now an aquatic paradise…
If Nintendo learned their lesson from the Wii, it won’t. If Nintendo are smart, they will produce more than enough, and have some stockpiled.
They may intentionally create shortages to drum up interest
which lesson? third party?
i think the third party games talk for themself
OKAY so NOW he’s on the Wii U boat? Is this not the same Patcher Moron that has been saying the Wii U will fail? This guy is always full of complete BS.
Not sure if I should be glad or sorry for that.
What did nintendo do to him?!
Raped him
Nothing ! Thats the power of WiiU ;)
AWWWW YEAH :D
Na, our Ninjas paid him a visit. Hahaha! Like I said previously in another comment ” Nintendo don’t fuck around!”
Hehehehe…..HAHAHAHAAA!!!!
What he said something nice about Nintendo?
Not the first time eigher. He has said good things before.
I think, that someone did his homework
Worth to note: This is far from the first time Pachter says good stuff about the Wii U. He is pleased now when he has the information he needs to do accure predictions. He wasn’t before and therefore as a analyzist took the pessimistic way to avoid being underwhelmed.
Are you actually trying to justify him being so harsh? I mean, sure, more information was needed, but instead of being an ass, he could’ve kept his mouth shut and waited for more facts before speaking.
He has not been so harsh actually. The reason why people thinks that he’s so harsh is because on here and other Nintendo fan pages he is sometimes quoted out of the context. You don’t get the full story, just fragments.
The reason why he didn’t belive in the Wii U was first because people didn’t knew that it was a new console but thought of it as an add-on for the Wii (reading here it seemed like HE thought the Wii U was nothing but an add-on for the Wii), and he was not alone with that (those were never mentioned). Then he disliked it because of rumours and at the time the rumours was all we had to go by and the rumours about it being lowpowered had support from the fact that the Wii was underpowered (the same way some of the Nintendo fans went by rumours about it being overly powerfull). I am not saying he has been correct all the time, just that I understands the way he reason.
And he has been giving the Wii U controller praise before.
But I think this quote sums up Pachter pretty well “Not sure if troll” because sometimes he says ridiculous things that could’ve been better unsaid and he mixes it with good, informative stuff. I am not exactly a fan of him, but he is usually accure when it comes to everything but Nintendo, so I give him some credit.
Everyone needs to see this!
He dont Know what he want !!!!!!
But its cool he become smarter than ever …
Good to hear it !
Oh no! First he was just bashing it, now he’s trying to jinx it…
Come off it Pachter. First its all doom and gloom now he’s acting like someone at Nintendo game him the most amazing blow job ever. I just don’t get it.
Only with WiiU !!!
Pachter had open eyes … His body is ready too !!!
http://goo.gl/VVCG3
^ Spam for a Walking Dead Blu-Ray, just a heads up.
OH MY GOD!! Someone has cloned Pachter! It can´t be the real one!
Now the WiiU is definitely doomed.
DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMED.
There he goes again… switching back and forth constantly.
Ummmm I wonder were aeolus is??? I haven’t seen him around.
I am right here, preparing my body for Nintendo’s big failure console. But don’t worry guys. I will get my second hand (so I don’t have to support Nintendo). Therefore I will be able to look for myself how crappy it is. I will maybe get Zelda if it will be as good as promised, but that’s all I will get that’s not second hand, because I do not want to support craptendo anymore.
Oh, one last thing. I am NOT a troll.
Suuuuuuuuuure……….
Shut up, Meg.
I hope this stops the always negative BS from get pachattacked from the back pachter
Did Pachter get hit on the head or something?
This reminds me of that Futurama movie where rapist tentacles come out. He was so against it, now he loves the “tentacle”
You want ketchup with those words, Pach?
Oh crap, this means it won’t happen.
Nintendo is in trouble then, because this guy is always wrong LMFAO
Pachter is a fuckface. I don’t wanna see what Pachter says.
r Says Wii U Will Be A Great System
I think the price is too expensive to sell well, at least in Europe from the prices I’ve seen so far. To be honest it probably is a reasonable price in the sense that I can see why it would cost so much, but I think many people still wouldn’t be prepared to pay it. I’m rather pessimistic about the success of the Wii U at the moment but we’ll see
I’m going to agree with you, but with an Australian perspective.
I can pick up the Xbox 360 here or a PS3 for a similar price, with a hard drive and a bunch of games or the WiiU with one bundled game and limited flash storage…
Sure the 360/PS3 are older consoles, but since they’re getting they’ll likely be getting the same games as the WiiU, and probably cheaper, which one do you think parents will buy their kids for Christmas ?
I have no doubt the first shipment or two will sell out in Australia, but by early next year, the fanfare will die down and the console’s sales will have slowed.
People talk about the Wii coming out at $400AU, and it’s true, but it competed against the $800 PS3 and $650 (I think) Xbox 360 at the time. It sold well because it was cheaper, and the economy at the time was slower. The WiiU doesn’t have a direct new competitor, it’s now competing against existing technology, which isn’t a huge difference from it, but a whole lot cheaper.
It’s confirmed, Wii U will flop hard. :P
Jokes aside, Nintendo TVii might be the one feature to sell the system like crazy. On top of that, you don’t have to pay to get it working. I think it was ingenious from them. The games are pretty nice too, and Bayonetta 2 will be big for fans like me.
Well, someone’s changed their tune.
What’s up with this guy today? He’s confusing me.
I’ll wait until some better games are made for it. There is no games for this now that makes me say “Wow, I have to have this!”.
Personal opinion but im jizzing over Rayman, ZombiU, Wonderful 101, NSMBU, even NintendoLand (never thought id say that), and of course Pikmin 3, which is going to be soooo good
noooooooooo that means wii u is doomed!
Look at Pachter eat his foot.
“How’s it taste bro?…..”
“What? I can’t hear you with your toes in your throat.”
The wii U looks very cool, I might get one once I buy all the best games I can get on my 360, then ill get a wii U and a 720. Next gen is going to be awesome!
Wow patcher… All that stuff he kept saying about nintendo not wowing or gaining enough excitement from gamers and people alike, now he’s saying that it’ll be sold out for months
Well… that’s nice… FOR PEOPLE WITH $300!!! Honestly, I’m poor. I wanna go to NYCC to at least play the console at the Nintendo booth. I have NO money for this right now. Besides, let them work out the bugs and maybe drop the price a bit if I can wait that long. It’s obvious I want it, but I really can’t afford it right now. Maybe next holiday season… you know, when the world doesn’t end.
Except it took like what, 3 or 4 years for the Wii to drop in price so good luck waiting.

nintendo’s wii u will fail?
………………………………………………………………………………………….0 FUCK OF
It’s official, gentlemen: pigs fly
I for one will be going in boot camp.within the next 3 months to go in the US Navy. The second I get out I am buying an IPhone 5. And after that, Wii U. You’re mine.
Me and Patcher are on the same boat. I hated Wii U up until today. Seeing the bundle announced here in US just changed it. Anyone can argue how much they want, Wii U is a very good deal at 350 and comes with a game. I’m gonna get one. The things gonna be awesome.
Somebody pinch me. Or slap.
Which is exactly why I just pre-ordered mine :)
=====================
Making my post long so you dingbats will see it!
Pachter is more positive about the Wii U now that he has a price and launch details to work with, but you guys are COMPLETELY missing the mark here, and sickr is largely to blame for this one. Pachter says it will sell out because Nintendo will literally *make* it sell out by providing retailers only limited quantities. The press will declare the Wii “revolution” alive and kicking at the news that retailers are out of stock constantly. This will look great for Nintendo and keep their momentum going through the coming year, even if it means literally denying a large number of people the Wii U.
I’m glad I’ve found different websites to frequent. The quality of the news reports and user input has decreased dramatically since this time last year.
Good day.
=====================
ok nintendo how much did you payhim
Patcher will soon be ours to convert hahahahahah!
ha! nintendo finally found his price.
My god, he’s actually being POSITIVE. I like this.
The fact that he’s contradicting himself makes him an even more ginormous idiot.
Wii u sucks balls!
So is your boyfriend loser!
