– In 2024 he doubled that prediction, saying Game Pass could reach 200 million active users within ten years
– He told GamesBeat that the console is "dead" and Microsoft already "missed the moment"
– Pachter said Microsoft raised Game Pass prices and restructured the service, prompting his changed view
– He recommended a flexible pricing format, about $10 for "unlimited" instead of roughly $30 per month
– He believes promoting Game Pass and multiplatform reduced the value of Xbox console ownership, affecting hardware sales
