Actually Take 2 should care, Nintendo shot an arrow across it's yard and basically told them: "If you don't support us, we're going to crash your party". This was all about Take 2 and not so much about Sony and Microsoft. Nintendo wanted a GTA game on it's console, Take 2 didn't build one so Nintendo tried to take the oomph out of their sales. Mario Kart and Wii Fit will affect GTA's legs. GTA4 may have had a really good opening week but it's guaranteed now that GTA won't get the free press it would have gotten if the game helped Sony and Microsoft trounce all over the Wii.

Nintendo is a company which cares about money. It knows that to get more money it needs games like GTA on it's system (Licence fee's). This should be a warning to any third party company who doesn't follow in line behind the Wii. Nintendo doesn't give a damn about you, they will do whatever they can to ruin your games launch and any free press you might get from it by positioning their own games around your games launch.

This move will end up leaving Take 2 open for takeover, which will help EA. As we know EA is all about getting it's games out on as many consoles as it can. Nintendo knows this as well. The takeover is going to happen now, Take 2's value will dip below EA's asking price soon and it will be ripe for the picking.

 

I don't know, if Halo 3 was the record holder of biggest entertainment sales on earth(previous one was Spider-Man), GTA IV(3,703,806) is the record holder now,Halo 3(2,844,837), why should T2 care? T2 is the biggest on earth now. Since they can co-exist(look at the sales of MK Wii) & they are in different market and T2 got its own portion on it (Carnival Game), Wii Fit won't affect GTA IV sales, soccer moms aren't buying GTA IV now, they won't buy it after.

 Take 2 has no other big games coming out.  Microsoft has other divisions which boost it's share price.  Take 2's share price has no where to go but DOWN.  It peaked when news hit that it would hurt Wii sales, it's been dropping since.  Take 2's stock will be under 20$ in a few weeks/months again.  Making it a prime candidate to be taken over.  It doesn't matter how big a release was for a company if they can't consistently beat the street.  Take 2 will not be able to sustain it's growth and so the stock will suffer.

What Take 2 needs is a rosy future painted for it by the news.  It keeps people interested in the company.
