Forums - Gaming Discussion - If GTA was on the Wii....

Hmm...
I'm sure the people who like GTA generally have PS3s and Xbox360. It will do decent for a third party game but not great bc. the people w. Wiis generally are interested in Platformers liek ssbb and mkwii and scuh

@dsoverpsp

Generally I generally believe your generally generalizing.

j/k j/k, just had to do it XD.

I want my Tales of Symphonia, FFCC, The World Ends With You Too, Monster Hunter 3, and maybe even The Conduit.


btw don't even google it cause it doesn't exist... you know what I'm talking about. XD



I'm Unamerica and you can too.

The Official Huge Monster Hunter Thread: 



The Hunt Begins 4/20/2010 =D

If it had controls similar to Godfather it was do very, very well.



Cons

Less people / veichles etc on screen
lower graphics quality

under Pros you forgot larger potential market because the Wii is actually a commercial success

I know I've posted this before, but dismissing Nintendo consoles as "kiddie" is ridiculous. I am 28 years old, many of my friends are the same age and own a Wii. When I see a pointlessly violent video game, it puts me off. Makes me think of loud, dumb, annoying 15 year olds that get on my nerves when I ride the subway.

This week I gave "Bully" a try; half an hour in, I got involved in my first fist fight. Near the end I was asked to perform some motion to "humiliate" my opponent - when I did it, the character spat into his hand and rubbed it into the other kid's face. I asked myself "what the FUCK am I playing here?", ejected the disk and put it on ebay. If that's what you mean with "mature gameplay", then yes, I hate it, I don't want it on my Wii. Feel free to call me a kid and yourself an adult.


Bravo, well said! An awful lot of what gets called adult fare in this business is actually adolescent fare. The industry has produced very little in the way of true adult games outside of Wii Fit. Fortunately Nintendo produces a lot that's enjoyable by all ages because its challenging enough to keep us interested but also a game we can play with our children.



i think it would sell well

How so? Wouldn't they just make the graphics bad to compesate.

Valid for now
Friends code for online play/possibly no online play

The op said that it will have online. It doesn't have to use friend codes if they used their own server like EA did for MOhh2

Pros

Motion controls


 I don't see what this all has to do with sales though.

* Not really. First of all, the short loading times (they are still there, since even carts have loading) just applies to the PS3 version. And the Wii uses some of the RAM as a disc buffer (since the GC did), so the loading would actually be almost as good as the PS3 version. 



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs

If GTA IV got a Wii version as well it would have sold more copies than the other two and the whole Wii-hate weeks we lived wouldn´t even have happened. That´s what I think. Although, when I remember how bad mature games do generally on the Wii, I suppose it would also be the case with GTA IV. But then you have a title like RE4 that did extremely well  on the Wii but that actually was a last-gen game. Instead of contradicting myself, I´ll just say that I can´t predict it.
