tipical hater arguments. gta on ds cannot be compared to a home console gta. the highest selling third party game on wii u is at 4.5k. and if a really late port like batman can sell 150k on a launch install base, a big brand like gta gan get 1kk with a year old install base.

You can expect games like batman arkhan origins, AC4, watch dogs and cor ghosts to reach about 500k, thus encouraging thirds to launch more games on wii u.

COD is a bigger franchise right now and it hasnt even reached half a mil yet. and it might not even get to 1 mil sold until way later if the sales are anything to go by. What makes you think GTA will do better?

WHAT EXACTLY HASN'T REACHED A MILLION? certainly you're not expecting the launch title that had a launch install base to keep selling, right?

and GTA is a bigger franchise than COD in terms of quality and not releasing every year. with the higher install base wii u will have by the end of the year, of course the game would do much better than those launch titles that already sold decently.

If you actually read what i said and not gotten emotional. I said it hasnt reached HALF a mil. A console COD hasnt even reached a quarter mil yet and we are in June and it released in November. 

quality is subjective and has nothing to do with what we are talking about, COD is the bigger franchise in terms of sales and releases, that is a fact. And if COD BLOPS2 hasnt even sold 200k yet, i would have little hope that GTA would do better. ANd btw less than 200k for a CONSOLE COD release is anything but decent. hell the VIta one did better and that was a piece of crap

SO WHAT? that game won't get much more sales, but what does it have to do with what we're talking. the first COD games released on ps360 haven't reached 10M even though the install base raised, that's the same excuse for logic that you're using. AND ALMOST 200K WHEN THE INSTALLED BASE WAS BELOW 3M IS DECENT, speccially when half of that would already mean profit.

Look, no matter how much you hate wii u (wich seens obvious), it will have a bigger install base by the end of the year and the newest installments of franchises that were there at launch (batman, COR, AC) will definetely sell better than the ones at launch. I'm expecting numbers around 500k, batman and watch dogs may cross the 600 and 700k respectively.

It has to do with what we're talking about because COD, sales wise is one of the few franchises that is comparable, it is bigger than GTA and is not doing hot on WIi U now, so I and a few others see no reason why a series that is less popular would do better. What does 10 mil have to do with anything? We talking just 1 mil, which the intial PS360 versions of the first CODs DID do and beyond, and its looking like that wont happen for WIi U, which is not going to be a good thing in the publisher's eyes.

How much i hate the Wii u? fail I like the system just fine. There is nothing to hate. What does that have to  with anything? SO because i believe a certain game wont do good on a certain system I hate it? what an ignorant thing to think. Not that it matters becasue GTA isnt coming to WIi U, so its all moot. ANd if it is a late port it even has a less likely chance of reaching a mil. Not sure what Batman, and watchdogs or AC have to do with GTA, but ok.
