http://www.blogsmithmedia.com/www.nintendowiifanboy.com/media/2008/05/gta_iv_pachter_npd_april_sm.jpg (http://www.joystiq.com/2008/05/12/pachter-predicts-ps3-beat-xbox-360-in-april/)The NPD numbers (http://www.nintendowiifanboy.com/tag/npd) aren't going to be available until later this week, but Michael Pachter is still doing his thing and tossing some predictions out there. With that Grand Theft Auto IV (http://www.joystiq.com/grand-theft-auto-iv) game releasing in April (and shattering records (http://www.joystiq.com/2008/05/07/ny-times-gta-iv-snatches-500-million-in-first-week/) like crazy), many might think that Nintendo is going to have to relinquish its throne for a short while, like when that Halo 3 game released (http://www.nintendowiifanboy.com/2007/10/19/september-npd-it-finally-happened/). Pachter doesn't think so, however, and called for another victory for Nintendo.
600,000 units is the magic number, according to the analyst, as he says Wii will once again reign supreme when the April NPD numbers release. Considering a pretty big Wii title (http://www.nintendowiifanboy.com/tag/mario-kart-wii) released during that month, we're inclined to agree with the man.
