According to this how much would GTA5 need to sell? cant be bothered working it out.

something between 100k and 200k. and we're talking about a possible million seller.

I don't think it could hit a million due to the size of the Install base of the WiiU I could see it selling around 500-600k max. My reason is the WiiU only has 2 games that have sold over a million and both of them are exclusives, the game that comes in at 3rd is a pitiful 480k and that was also an exclusive, the first real third party game comes in at 6 (im not going to include MH) which sold 250k. And COD which is a franchise as big as GTA if not bigger now only managed 190k and that was a good port not a half arsed one.

But lets say it needs 150k to break even, then they'll be sitting with a nice little profit at the end if it managed around 500k.
