I still don't get it why they just don't convert an old GTA game to the wii. Bully is great and the brilliant motion controls had their part to that.

No matter which old GTA they bring over to the Wii, I would buy it day one.

They are pleased how it is still selling at a fairly high pace = They are pleased with the sales somehow (this is called "interpretation" here, I don't know how it's called where you live).

While I doubt we will see a Wii GTA (unless the userbase changes dramatically), I think M+ and some new IP would certainly be possible. Either way the point is clear GTA:CW is doing fine (not great, fine) Not to mention we are talking about the DS here. Last I heard you could pretty much make a DS game for the cost of a nice ribeye. Granted RS did more than the bare minimum, and it shows, but to suggest this cost anything like GTA4 or the PSP GTA's is laughable, sad, and ignorant.

... which is stupid because Godfather Blackhand was absolutely great on Wii. The controls lend itself really well to close and personal fighting and IR point is perfect for shooting.

Who cares what some lamo thinks about GTA:CW sales. I get my info from fanboys on the forums and they say its a flop, so...1+1=3

Yup, that game has near-perfect Wii controls. More companies should have learned from it. It doesn't overuse motion, it doesn't underuse it, it uses it in intelligent and fun ways that add and do not subtract from the gameplay.

Everytime I see a Wii game with crappy wagglish controls, I think to myself, WHY COULD EA TACK MOTION ONTO AN EXISTING GAME 2 YEARS AGO, DO IT RIGHT, BUT YOU CANNOT?!

I think a Wii GTA would do fine. They would probably have to use the old Renderware engine, but that worked damn well back in the day, so it would be fine. (And save dev costs.)

I'm surprised at all the freaking out that was done over Chinatown wars. Portable sales are different from console sales. Rarely does anyone stand in line for hours to get a portable game, they typically sell well overtime, even the best of them. For instance, I'm going to be picking up Chinatown wars at some point, but I really don't feel the need to rush out and get it like I have with other games. (KZ2, Galaxy, Halo).

They said they are still evaluating which games to bring to which platforms so they aren't even in the planning stage yet. So by the looks of it, don't expect to see a GTA Wii game for a long time, if at all.

I agree with everything you said here, but you still missed an even more unbelievable fact. Rockstar already has a game like that with Bully on the market and the controls imo are even slightly better than Godfather'(well apart from the gun part which you can't compare 100% with godfather). So they know how to do it, but still don't develop a GTA (even if the graphics are worse, I wouldn't care). Shame on them.

You clearly didn't pay attention to what was done with the previous GTA games. Why would they port III, VC, and SA to the Xbox and PC whey they clearly made plenty on the PS2?

Ports don't mean flops. Those tend to reduce the chances of ports. Even Okami made money before it was ported (just not a lot).

A GTA for wii, that'll be low from take-two, imo.
