No it won't GT PSP would provide a nice boost in EU, but no game can really help it in the West. I wonder if R* will go back to the PSP if Chinatown Wars flops. (Anything less than 2 million would be a massive flop)

 

I'm pretty sure it will only need sell a fraction of 2m to not be a flop.

And I'm sure they didn't need Liberty City Stories to sell 5 million alone on the PSP.

 

No GTA game will lose money, I'm talking amount of profit. What's the point of doing a DS one that sells 1-2 million if you can make one on PSP that sells 3-5 million.

GTA Liberty was a port.  Right now as it stands T2 seems hesitant to create from scratch for the psp as there are to many variable at play concerning the psp and games.  Also a DS gta can be looked in as a way for T2 to familiarize with the game for a possible gta wii thats the only reason i see gta for ds as it seems.

 

Maybe San Andreas is too big or complicated to port.  Maybe the DS version has such low overhead that it's well worth it.
