Its not on pc either... 

There's reasons for it not to release it on PC immediately, (piracy).

Reasons for it not to release on wii u include: demographic, waiting to see and make sure it sells, resources (resources spent on this could be spent on making new GTAV expansion which would make them more money). Lack of reliable known wii-u porting company, Making it take advantage of the Wii U's features (like PC), any combination of multiple factors, etc.

How many of the GTA5 wii-u sales would have been PS3 or 360 sales anyways?
So essentially any GC/PS2/Xbox 3rd party exclusive was irrational?

Maybe there's some irrational ideas in their thinking. But they're only human.

but khan likes to be dramatic like bella from twilight.

Demographic is a misperception, proven by certain trends of early Wii games. If its because of demographic, its because their market research folks are buying into FUD (as marketing folks too often do), resources for expansion, possibly, although they could put that expansion on Wii U as well and continue to make money. Reliable porting? I thought Rockstar was supposed to be a competent developer (like BioWare <_>), making it take advantage of Wii U's features? A pittance.

 


Do I think it's a bit silly every 360/PS3 game not to be released on PC? Yes, Alan wake made profit in first day after year old port meaning piracy ain't much of a factor against console sales, why don't every dev do this? ZOMG devs have a conspiracy to hate the PC, even though they developed the game on a PC. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Do I think wii-u will get GTA5? Yes, blahbliblah
