"Daddy what are politics?"

"Daddy's political party are the good guys and the other one are the bad guys!"

"Cool!"

And that is why Democrats and Republicans can't compromise on anything, each side demonizes each other instead of discussing issues and policies. Also the reason why I hate politics.

"Analyst" should be a post category.

..... yeah.... :/

Unfortunately republicans or democrats, well doesn't make much of a difference. It's probably why there is no real debate going on apart from the slight differences as to how big state intrervention can be. That's all. But as Anouki said the "debate" most of the time is reduced to superficial arguments.

You guys want to see political debates with actual differences between parties? Try Europe but even us are losing it because the economical crisis and the international competition don't leave room for innovation and difference anymore.

No. I'm not one of those who mindlessly gives negative votes for anything releated to Pachter. The videos are sometimes very good, and yet they still get negative votes.

Before my first post, the video already had a -4.

I laughed at the Dark Void comment. Didn't think anyone actually remembered that disaster.

Good. I like that +6. :P
Now I feel like I don't have to defend him anymore. Yay!
Pretty decent episode today. I long for the day someone actually use DLC right.

I love how he's talking success yet Pach thinks Nintendo might "catch up" to the PS3 with Wii U.

He also thinks the Vita is the coolest piece of hardware but isn't succeeding because of smartphones.

Totally ignores that the Wii blew PS3 away in sales and that the 3DS is thriving in spite of all this "smart phone invasion."

... what a moron.

Because sales means quality. Consequently, Justin Bieber is one the the best musicians of our time, Avatar is the best movie ever released, and indie games and bands are always, without exception, utter rubbish.

The Vita is a cool piece of hardware. It just doesn't have any games and is too expensive both for the consumers and Sony. Contrastingly, the PS3 had a lot of cool games, somewhat better power and vastly better third-party support than the Wii, and it makes a decent Blu-Ray player.

Yes, people who mindlessly attack Nintendo are just that: mindless. But the people who mindlessly attack Sony/Microsoft aren't any better. Other companies do cool things too at times - competition is a very necessary thing in the world of business, and as a consumer, it's your duty to support things that acts as a leap forward and not a single company - otherwise we run the risk of stagnation.

haters gonna hate ^^

@CrashMan

I think it was not very clear. When he said nintendo is catching up with Sony, he meant how powerful the hardware is. But he absolutely failed to mention that Nintendo did what he says he likes about apple. They created something consumers want, and made people want it. They did that during this whole generation and changed vidoegames forever. But of course Pachter is probably too good of an analyst to even aknowledge this very obvious fact... oh well.

Other than that, I like what he said about DLCs, but I hated what he said about japanese companies. Because of what I said above and because he seems surprisingly oblivious of the fact that American companies such as EA, THQ or Activision reported losses too, and fired a ton of people this year.

At least he mentioned that Nintendo has a ton of cash so it isn't doomed yet...
