Forums - Nintendo - If GTA was exclusive to the Wii U, would it ever be able to push out the sales that it did on the PS3/360?

look at gta on the ds vs psp for your answer



Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.

Around the Network

Yes. Because software sells hardware. Therefore, the fanbase will be buying the Wii U to play it.



Proud to be the first cool Nintendo fan ever

Number ONE Zelda fan in the Universe

DKCTF didn't move consoles

Prediction: No Zelda HD for Wii U, quietly moved to the succesor

Predictions for Nintendo NX and Mobile


13 million people wouldnt buy a WiiU for GTA



Nah, completely wrong demographic.



It wouldn't push 15 million.

 

But it would sell like 3-4 million of consoles, yeah it would.



Around the Network

Definitely. GTA is one of those franchises that i it were a Wii U exclusive, people would be clawing over each other to get both the console and game.
Even if it were just released as a port, I have no doubt that the game would have sold over a million, so long as it had features that would entice people to get the Wii U version.



I <3 Classic Platformers!

Multi-console Owner FTW

If it were exclusive it would have insanely pushed the Wii U sales.



It wouldn't sell the PS360 numbers, cause not everyone would be willing to buy a game for 350$ to play, but I guess it would shift around 5 million Wii Us exclusively thanks to GTA V.



So it is happening...PS4 preorder.

Greatness Awaits!

If GTA V was a Wii U exclusive and used the gamepad remarkably then it would definitely sell a ton but not more then it would've as its on PS360.

If GTA V was a Wii U exclusive with just regular gameplay then it would still shift quite a bit (since its GTA unlike Bayonetta) but then you'll have people being upset and all "wtf does it need to be Wii U exclusive" when it can do the same on other consoles that's more suited for GTA

Well China Town wars barely outsold the PSP version, but if you are talking about the real versions on ..Liberty city stories, then yes, the PSP Won. But I think the Wii U version could be the best version. Still would not sell as well. different situation.

the psp version of china town wars was a 6month late port yet look how it sold compared to the ds version
