I'm pretty sure a lot of Wii U owners have already played GTA V.

I think if they released GTA with the original versions it may have sold 1 million lifetime, but considering that anyone who wants the game has it on the 360/ps3, there's not many left to sell it to. Probably get 250,000 lifetime. Which would pay for the port and make a nice little profit. But Rockstar has always seemed to have something against Nintendo, so don't expect it.

it would have done a lot better than 1 million. right now, it would obviously do less than a simultaneous release but still much more than your 250k.

Lol, getting Watch Dogs in GTA's stead is like getting Playstation All Stars instead of Smash Brothers.

That's very true.

lol, if the vita got this many ports, I'd be grateful (unless they came as late as borderlands 2 will)

It's only two years late. What do you think? Vita should get games in a timely manner or something? Boy, are you entitled.

you wanna compare a new IP thats been in dev hell for months with a delayed Wii U release to one of the biggest if not the BIGGEST games released in the last 5 years? OK.

And there was never any inclination of GTA5 ever going to Wii U just wish thinking from some Ninty fans saying stuff online

...What happened to your avatar, man?

OT: I'd already forgotten that GTA5 skipped Wii U... Then again, I'm not a Wii U owner, anyway.

The real question is... did Wii U gamers even care about GTAV in the first place? The game could've launched right alongside the PS360 versions and it would have sold about as well as two other big AAA multiplatform releases on the Wii U did... COD Ghosts and ACIV.
