No R* will be happy with the +15m sales that GTA IV will end up with

What do you mean by this? Are you being sarcastic?

Why would anyone be happy with what they got, when they can aim for more?

 

They made a game which was the second  best reviewed game of all time and sold incredibly well, so why would they want to change everything?

 

@ peachbuggy, you are comparing a game with Mario in the title, directed towards Wii owners with a game that does not fit the system's demographic, GTA is much better suited on the PS360, which have the more violent games, Wii may have MadWorld, but PS360 have 10 more. It will be interesting how well it sells on DS though



A spin off, yes, GTAV is going PS360 IMO.

I don't know how little GTA fits with the Wiis base. I mean, the Wii one is the closest one to the Ps2 one.

 Also, what is he comparing?

A game that sold 7M & 4M last gen

The best selling franchise last gen

Also, the Wii wouldn't need to be even close to as largely scaled, and could easily have less than 1/10th of the budget (GTA IV = 100M, SMG was 15M, they're not going to make it costier than SMG)

 

I'd still say that GTA should stay at Ps3/X360 though, as its sales will probably be at least 2x the size over a Wii version.

But heck, why don't they port GTA:SA/VC on 1 disc over to Wii? That would cash in a fair amount...

Oh what the hell, Take2 is probably earning heaps on the Wii already.

Of course, they are happy with the game they made. But that's not the same as not wanting more. If they could make a game on the Wii that sells 3+million and that will make them tons of money, why not make it? Because they already sold 15 million and they're happy with that? I don't think so.

Naturally, there are other reasons why it would not show up on the Wii. And that is the fact that maybe they could make more money by pouring the same resources into other projects. Or that a GTA Wii might be undermining the brand. Or they don't want to (people can be stubborn).

But because they're happy with what they already have? No. Just no.

Yes but certainly not exclusive.

Not enough to post profits...

Yes!
and it will be announced this year.

GTA V Will come out in the next gen





Also, look back two years and I expect you to find a thread

The next portable GTA comes to DS?

Where no doubt everyone laughed at the OP and said it wouldn't happen.

History is repeating itself, and its repeating 2 years ago, so it's easy to notice



@ Munkeh111, that's like saying Nintendo should have stopped making Mario games after SMB1, because of it's mega high sales...
Or Mario should not have gone 3D because it was already doing fine in 2D...
As you can see, you're logic is flawed.

@ actual topic, I can see a possible GTA spinoff. GTAV though I see being on either the PS360 or a next-gen (8th gen) console, probably the PS4 or Xbox760 or both.
