Forums - Nintendo - GTA V Wii U?

VGKing on 17 June 2013

It's pretty obvious by now that the game won't come to Wii U. I mean, its not even coming to PC.

I'd be surprised if it doesn't come to Wii U, I mean, almost all of the other big PS360 games made by Ubisoft are Wii U bound, so why not GTA?

I hope so anyway. Will save me a lot of money.

Fixed.

This, its insane to say almost all the third party games are coming. hell there is already a list of games NOT going to Wii U and it is a massive list.

For me, I only cared about 3 third party games coming to WiiU: GTAV, MGSV, Dark Souls II. None of them is coming :/

Luckly I won't miss them anyway.

It would take a while to port and would not sell a lot =/



My grammar errors are justified by the fact that I am a brazilian living in Brazil. I am also very stupid.

Take two has been losing money for the past few years, it's only now that they are profiting, so they probably more focused in staying profitable than anything else. They are not in the position to just release games on a platform that as a low return on investement like the wii U

Porting the game to wii u would cost 2M tops and it would profit far more than that.

you've posted in this thread far to much for me to believe you dont care, IMHO it seems like another "this game is not coming to my system of choice, so im going to hate on it" now if im wrong then im wrong.

I simply enjoy discussion. If I was pissed I'd be bashing Rockstar. I don't change my view on games based whether or not they come to my console of choice; I still love Bioshock even though Infinite didn't come to Wii U, and I still dislike Assassin's Creed even though it's on Wii U now.


fair enough

It's not coming out... when a game is due for release in two months and has no announced release date on a specific console, it's not coming out for that console, pure and simple.

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.

Seriously GTA is so huge releasing on WiiU will 100% make a profit even if its just 1 dollar. And if its just 1 dollar then it was worth it because well you earned 1 dollar plus you established your IP.

Establishing your IP is the most important thing to do but must third party devs/publishers are to stupid and greedy to see it. They act like money is the only thing. Well you need to establish yourselves before you can expect money duh.

 

Not having GTA5 on WiiU would be a really stupid decision especially because the gamepad can offer alot of neat things

bad logic, you waste time that could be used for making much more money, why waste months on a wii U version that's gonna sell 250k when you could be making an other game

because a wii u version of gtaV would easily sell 1M

Hahahahaha, the hihest selling third party right now is at  370k, gta on the ds sold 1.26mill on a 150mill userbsase how the hell would gta sell easily 1mill on the wii U

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.
