Pachter: Xbox 360 ending in third place in 2015

June 29th, 2009 Posted in Analyst, Business, Industry

Wedbush Morgan Securities analyst Michael Pachter and his team have compiled a 210 page report on the future of video game industry. In it, Pachter predicts that the Wii will win this console generation, and that Nintendo will release a WiiHD, most likely in 2010. He also said that the fact that Sony’s Blu-ray won the HD disc war, it will fuel PS3 sales for years to come, eventually surpassing the Xbox 360, which will, according to Pachter, end up third by the end of this console generation. Which is in 2015, in case you’re wondering. Or at least, according to Pachter.

    [...] Leaving aside that this guy’s expertise is probably more relevant to stock than gaming, it’s worth remembering that the recent disaster called the Credit Crunch significantly failed to be predicted by any of these so-called experts.
