What a ridiculous thought. The thousands of people that make up Rockstar North and Taketwo, hundreds of which grew up with Nintendo systems and still buy them today, are all "ignorant haters" on Nintendo.

Here's just one other scenario: Maybe Rockstar want to spend their time focusing on the 2 versions they're making now, which would make sense since they spend a LOT of time polishing their games. Maybe making the best game possible on these 2 plaforms is of higher priority then porting to the Wii U and PC, and they don't want to put their game in the hands of another studio. Knowing Rockstar, and the kind of money they make T2 (which translates into power), this seems like a reasonable possibility, and a lot more reasonable than the irrational hatred you're suggesting. 

When all rational explanations have been ruled out, hate is the only remaining quantity.

Since when were all rational explanations ruled out? 

Given the dismissive language used by Take Two higher-ups (who are the only people whose opinion really matter in this case), we can think that they're just using the same exploitative strategy that they were before. We simply need to wait for confirmation and the inevitable journalistic questioning before documenting further evidence against them.

So far I've read things like "We generally don't do straight ports, but our next games could go on the system" and "We want to bring casual games to the Wii U, but we're skeptical about bringing core games" (not direct quotes obviously). How in the world is that evidence of ignorance and hatred? 

And to answer this Q to choco: "Whose to say Nintendo fans aren't interested, hmm? They've never had an opportunity."

Exactly, it's not happened, so there is a risk. I think it's completely fair to not want to be the one that takes the risk, and TT didn't say Ninty fans aren't interested, they said they're skeptical, which falls in line with not wanting to be the one who takes the risk.
