So you think your prediction is solid base on a rumour (which you hate)that Nintendo next console could be in the same level as ps5 and Xbox series? Why didn't Rockstar port GTA5 for the wii U or switch launch ? The switch is one of the most popular consoles ever if not the most popular and is powerful enough to run GTA5 but rockstar didn't even care. Nintendo next console will be a handheld and therefore it will be no where near the PS5 and Xbox series in power. At the moment there's a 0.071% chance GTA 6 is a launch title for Nintendo's next console 

I said I take rumors with a grain of salt, and that I dislike getting rumors and leaks as well (it ruins the fun, and I don't like to get the future spoiled).
But the rumors that have come out are very credible. Yes, considering DLSS and ray tracing. It very well could be.
Nintendo hasn't tried to make a next gen console since the Gamecube, and they did. It was more powerful that the PS2 and Xbox 360, but their audience didnt match the audience of the 3rd party developers. Same with the WiiU, which is another reason why both flopped. With the Switch the 3rd party developers made a business decision to not put anything on the Switch immediately due to the worry that the Switch will flop, like the WiiU did.

Rockstar has started to show some respect to the Switch, by putting out their older software titles that sold well, L.A. Noire, GTA The Definitive Edition and Red Dead Redemption. This is to test the waters and see just what kind of audience the Switch has accumulated over these 7 years. 

After they see what the audience looks like they will make their decision to either distribute to NG or not. I personally think that they will decide to support the NG.

Where did 0.071% come from?

The wii surely didn't flop why didn't Rockstar port GTA5 for the wii U launch? So they waited to see if the switch would flop or not but it end up being one of the most popular consoles ever and still they wouldn't port GTA 5. Shouldn't they also wait to see how successful Nintendo next console would be before porting it instead of making it a launch title? Rockstar never released a GTA game for a launch console, they didn't even bother porting any of the GTA games for the GameCube, Wii, Wii U . They ported the GTA trilogy sure but maybe that was because they were PS2 games and it didn't take much effort to do so and that the switch was so popular. We don't even know if Nintendo's next console would flop or not or if it could even run gta6. All of this adds up to the 0.007% chance that GTA6 would be a launch title for Nintendo next console
