Wedbush-Morgan analyst, Michael Pachter, was recently quoted as saying he didn't believe that Rockstar Games' controversial Bully was selling as well as expected and that based on numbers, there would be no chance for a sequel.
It takes a big man to admit he's wrong, and Pachter has done just that. Based on Bully's strong sales numbers over the holiday season, Pachter has reversed his decision and issued a formal apology to Take Two.
I have been consistently wrong about this title. I thought it would be stupid, and it was fun; I thought it would get poor reviews, and it got solid 90s; and I thought it would bomb, while it now appears to be a million unit seller. As a result, I did not expect a sequel, while now I have to acknowledge that a sequel is a possibility. I never hesitate to take credit when I'm right, and I never hide from my mistakes.
Well done Mr. Pachter, you're a real mensch.
