Instead of flat out telling you, reflect a bit on what you said in earlier posts.
I don't know if you see it, but I'm pretty sure others can see it as well.
The true winners of the video game industry are not only the gamers, but it's also the company that makes the console that is able to cater every audience's demand. Patcher's point is the fact that Nintendo is struggling to do that with the WiiU presently.

Wow ._.
You really think you I care about it?
Damn.
Excuse me whilst I play Sheep for GBA.
No, I don't think you do. Which further illustrates my point of your image.
Good day.

Meh whatever you want ;3
Seeyahs~
I'm having fun with me games.
It's what their meant to do~
Isn't the cheapest WiiU $300 and the ps4 400? $50s cheaper? there are titles such as Tom Clancy, watch dogs, Assassins creed, batman all making it's way to t he wiiu. It will sale more in the hackers scene since a soft mod is currently being worked on.
Much like those that have come before, a rerelease of an old game, games that are not out yet and err because they have money to burn compared to something as or more functional but easier to do.
It is not like the Wii U price will rise and it is not like all the stock will magically vanish into the ether as and when something might come out for it.
To that end
Actually no I can not say that
Why would anyone with a modicum of financial responsibility buy a Wii U?
1. Coz they like the concept of the wii u (the gamepad, the experience)
2. They like Nintendo games and the ones on Wii U, or soon to come
3. They're casual parents who want an easy way to entertain their children
4. They believe it to be more worth it than PS4/XBO
5. They know lots of people with Wii u's
Apps.
However:
There are currently 146 games confirmed (98 retail and 48 downloadable) as of 20 June 2013
Yep.
Those two are also systems that can entertain children without apps.
Modern day technology is fascinating

I played MW3 on the Wii and liked it. If the PS360 had controls like the Wii then I would have played on that console, now it's the Wii U BO2.
Personally, I think he's right on the money.
And I consider myself a huge Nintendo Fan boy ( played almost exclusively on Nintendo systems and handhelds since 1987 ).
I don't think he's opinionated or that he hates Nintendo, if you go and watch some of his older Pach Attack episodes he actually praised Nintendo all the time.
It's only after they made a few questionable decision ( as a company ) that he started to criticize them.
But he's right.
The huge mistake on Nintendo behalf was waiting way too long to launch a Wii U.
By 2009 the Wii was basically dead, but still a very popular brand.
Most people moved to other systems or PC gaming as a result of lack of games ( first or third-party ) .
Had the Wii U come 2 years early, it would have been riding on the Wii momentum and it would have been a huge competition for the PS360, with arguably better graphics and a cool controller.
By the time PS4 and XBone would have hit the market, the Wii U would have been an established platform on it's own with millions of happy owners and a shitload of games.
As it stands, with the next generation around the corner, developers have rightfully lost interest, plain and simple.
A lot of people will still get a Wii U for Nintendo games ( like Pachter said ) , but that won't be enough to make it a #1 seller ever again.
So I'd say, with all due respect, Pachter is right.

Every time Pachter makes some statement, or something he says is taken out of context and plastered all over headlines, Nintendo fans find some new way to be embarrassingly fanny flustered. There's enough spewed spaghetti here to feed the entire continent of Africa until the eventual heat death of the universe.
Maybe people could stop being so petty and defensive about their console of choice.
Maybe people could realize that Michael Pachter is not speaking from the perspective of a core gamer, and so his opinions and viewpoints might differ from yours.
Maybe people could stop trying to deny the Wii U's precarious situation and the struggles Nintendo has in selling people on the device.
Maybe people could accept that Pachter isn't the big bad boogeyman, and that throwing childish insults at him will accomplish nothing.
Maybe people could realize that acting so childish about anything Nintendo-related only reinforces the notion that Nintendo products are only for children.
Maybe people could understand that if you don't care for Pachter, you could just ignore him and not give him the traffic.
A bit too much to ask for, I'm sure, but a man can dream.

Even though most are lacking in depth and even more so are quite frankly shovelware (fucking Angry Birds), they are still games.
