Also GTA is very appealing to the casual market.That's how it got 15m in sales!  GTA on Wii would be huge!! Ever play Godfather on the WII?  Great fun with the Wii controls and that's nothing compared to GTA.

Is your grandmom going to want to drive around with a prostitute in her car?  Want to shoot people, want to play extremly long RPGs?  NO.  Nintendo is aiming to have everyone play the Wii, not just you but your bros + sis, plus mom, dad, aunt, uncle, grandparents, etc.  Many "hardcore" games won't appeal to them, and games like GTA they PROBABLY won't like.  Also, how are games like that going to fare on a system that has (in terms of percent) a lot of casual games.  Developers WILL be scared about games selling on a "casual" platform.

 I don't really know why I'm arguing on this.  The Wii won't sell forty million in a year.  It won't get to 500 million life time. 

GTA is one of my 12 y/o daughter's favorite games. One of my dad's too.  Beside, Take-Two already put Manhunt 2 on Wii with good results (outselling the PS2 version).  I doubt they'd be afraid to try a sure-fire hit like GTA.  Watch, next PSP edition will also be on Wii (but hopefully with improved graphics!)
