Pachter: Wii U not a next-gen console, Microsoft isn’t afraid
Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U | 1 Comment
During a tested.com video show, Wedbush analyst Michael Pachter discussed how he doesn’t consider the Wii U to be a next-gen system. He feels that this is one of the reasons that Microsoft isn’t afraid of the console.
According to Pachter, Microsoft views the Wii U “as an Xbox 360 with a tablet controller and is likely going to come out at a higher price point that the 360 at the time.”
His full comments can be read below.
“…And again, I take a lot of shit for this: their next gen system is a current gen system… But people who go, ‘well what are Microsoft and Sony going to do to catch up with Nintendo?’, they don’t care. Microsoft especially is not afraid of the Wii U. They look at the Wii U as an Xbox 360 with a tablet controller and is gonna likely come out at a higher price point that the 360 at the time.”
Earlier this week, Pachter stated that Nintendo will have a difficult time wooing developers to support their upcoming console. He explained that with the new controller, the company has “complicated game design for developers, who can’t figure out if the Wii U will ultimately support only one or multiple controllers.” He declared that Nintendo is “all but assured of limited third party launch support”.
