Wedbush Morgan analyst Michael Pachter is no stranger to the gaming scene. In fact, it’s his job to guesstimate, speculate, and estiguess on all things gaming, and in his latest report (via IndustryGamers ), he paints the future for all three console manufacturers. First up is Nintendo, a company that Pachter believes will remain in the top spot throughout this console generation. Due to the Wii’s “low price point, innovative control mechanism, and compatibility with standard definition televisions.” Pachter thinks that Nintendo will rest easy atop the gaming mountain. And he thinks the Wii HD is a big part of it, as Pachter firmly believes Nintendo will introduce a HD-compatible Wii at some point, even as early as next year.
