Maybe they still think it doesn't sell on a Nintendo console due to disappointing sales of GTA on the GBA and Chinatown Wars on the DS

I hardly think the Demographic is the same, still Chinatown sold about 1.3 million on DS, which is more than the PSP did

A great number actually even more considering it's HH and in a platform that hadn't received the type of game.

Yeah, but great numbers are sometimes not enough, remember when SE said Tomb Raider needs to sell 10M, EA saying Dead Space needs to sell 5M? Investors being disappointed CoD BOIIII generated "only" 500M$ in it's launch quarter? There are always some ludicrous numbers awaited from a game that clearly can't reach them.

However, after checking I think the problem is more with sheer size, 32GB simply doesn't cut it for a game as huge as GTA V

Probably not before Nintendo releases a Switch with at least 64GB, if not 128GB, storage space

This selling as it is on Switch just proves T2's talk of "Some titles are heavily weighted to PC/consoles" as being complete bullcrap. T2's had Civ portd to a console, I think it's time they did the same with RDR 2.
