Forums - Sales - The Next GTA comes to wii?

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

No they won't. GTA SA alone on the PS2 sold 16 million, and GTA VC alone on PS2 sold a similar ammount. GTAIV sales are the proof the the game doesn't stand for the two previous ones.

Not a chance. Rockstar wants to make the GTA5 bigger and better than GTA4, they don't want to make a dumbed down version with worse graphics and gameplay just for so the Wii can play it. End of story.

Even the DS version can came out bigger and better than GTA4. Being it doesn't means best graphics and best physics. DQIX on the DS won't stand for DXVIII for PS2, but it can be much better than it.

Just convince yourself that a GTA Wii is most likely to come, and just don't cry in anger please.

 



Make the game the best possible and name it like "GTA Wii"

3 Million Gazilion copies confirmed having that name.



Take 2 is one of the third party publishers who truely needs to be more successful on the Wii in order to just survive, and the only existing IP they have which has demonstrated sustained selling power is Grand Theft Auto. While they might not be able to bank on the same sales of a Wii version, they produced several Grand Theft Auto games for the PSP which (probably) sold less than a Wii version of the game would; and with the development cost on the Wii it would certainly be a very profitable game.

Okay I won't say there won't ever be a GTA Wii, I'm just saying that the main series won't ever come to Wii. Wii might get a spinoff or something.

I bet you a 2-week ban there WILL BE NO Grand Theft Auto V on the Wii. It will be PS360 exclusive

They already made a bigger and better GTA on the PS2. San Andreas had more activites, areas, weapons, vehicles, clothing choices, missions, collectibles, and overall features than GTA IV. It's a shame GTA IV's gameplay had to be dumbed down to reach the HD console's graphic standards, but hey, series was getting pretty stale anyways. =P

It doesn't have to be V. It can be an original one, like the DS one.

 

 very true. I could see the wii getting a spinoff GTA Wii. But I would be shocked if GTAV was announced for Wii.



Everyone talks about userbase alone, but that is not so simple, how much of Wii's userbase is the kind of people that would play a GTA game???

For example, look at Call of Duty 4, it's on PS3, 360 and DS, the 360 version is near 7 million, the PS3 version is near 4 million, and the DS version? less than 200k... and the DS has a near 100 million install base... not always the largest userbase is the people interested in your game...

I think they should do a study to see if it's good making a Wii GTA game... I'm sure it won't be enough to make it exclusive, but probably enough to make it multiplatform (PS3, Wii, 360) and make some more cash...



CoD DS isn't a great example of bad attach rate.

DS + FPS = say what?



If it isn't turnbased it isn't worth playing   (mostly)

For Thee, my Lord, for Thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, That our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command. So we shall flow a river forth to Thee And teeming with souls shall it ever be. In Nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritūs Sancti. -----The Boondock Saints

Of course people would buy it on the Wii, its GTA after all one of the most casual franchises on earth, its a game that seemed to bought by everyone on the PS2 most of my non gamer friends owned at least one version of it on the PS2, its just that popular and appealing to the Casual market (its just such a marketable concept, of acting like a criminal), GTA IV only sold that much on the 360 because of the casual gamers who have bought it. People can say wahtever they want but Casuals do buy GTA.

Therefore its a perfect game for Nintendo blue Ocean Strategy, a good GTA Wii game could easily sell 5 mln at least. Because there will be plenty of people that will play it (that have nothing to do with being a Gamer)
