"It didn't feel natural to us, I guess."

"We haven't really done any concrete, major thinking about the Wii, one way or another,"

Uhh...while it is a port, Bully S.E. is on Wii.
Bully is essentially GTA with younger characters and a smaller world.

So...these sound like lame excuses. The DS has a much cheaper dev. cost and has an incredibly large installed base.

I don't think we'll see a GTA Wii until fans demand it. I personally think GTA SA was better than GTA4 and I'd really like a new game based on SA's style, which is perfectly doable on Wii.

Seems like RockStar took the easy way to the bank.

I thought both Nintendo and TakeTwo have heavily hinted that one was coming

And isn't Houser on his way out?

I dont really care if Wii gets a GTA game. I buy Nintendo games for the Wii (10/11 of my Wii games are from Nintendo) and then I have a 360 and PS3 for games like GTA and everything else cause id rather have dlc and highdef graphics.

The Wii doesn't use a Cell processor, the PS3 does.

godfather wii best version

scar face wii best version

twilight princess wii best version

no more heroes wii exclusive

godfather a mear port and tack -on is clearly the best version of the game and also shows wiis big advantage in roaming 3d games and weapons useage and man on man combat


the wii is more suited to this kind of game than any other console add 1to1 into the mix presto un-matched gameplay and pick up and play

graphically it could be very close to gta 4

this is lame excuse making

remember saints row developers stated wii is toooo hardcore there scared of the back lash with wiis realistic controls

also dead rising gets a port to wii with real time 3d weaspons useage

again proving rock star lying fuks

@wiiboy101uk2008

You're right about the Wii having the best version of the games you mention, but who were they competing against(?) - last gen PS2 and Xbox.

GTA is far from being the only current gen franchise to skip the Wii, largely due to technology issues.

But I would have thought a Wii exclusive (or perhaps Wii and PS2 only) GTA game would sell in droves.

I'm sure if Rockstar were to release a port of San Andreas, and/or Vice City - especially if it were a "2 in one" it would sell bigtime on the Wii, but may damage GTA's reputation for excellence.

In my opinion, if Rockstar are happy to make a GTA for DS, it's only a matter of time before they make a GTA for Wii - it's money in the bank afterall.

"Dan, you can't be ruling out the most popular console in the world, can you?"

Is it not coming out for the PS2 then? That's the most popular console in the world.

Just because the Wii sold a few million units (most os which are now in cupboards gathering dust, looking at games sales), does not mean it's suddenly the most popular console in the world....

THE WII CAN NEAR MATCH PS3 X360 VISUALLY AND DO IT WITH OUT INSTALLS AND LONG LOADTIMES AND STOP CONFUSING GRAPHICS WITH RESOLUTION

EVERY GAME I MENTIONED IS PORTED FROM PS2 EXCEPT THE WII GAMES

AND THERE ALL SUPPORTING GAMECUBE GRAPHICS NOT WII

EVEN NO MORE HEROES HAS WEAKER CELL SHADING THAN WINDWAKER AND OVERALL GRAPHICS ARE CAPABLE ON GAMECUBE


NOT ONE OF THE GAMES I MENTIONED HAS WII GRAPHICS

LIKE I STATED IN MY INFORMED ABILITY TO UNDERSTAND WIIS TRUE CAPABILITY WII IF GTA WAS DONE WOULD COME VERY CLOSE TO PS3S GTA 4

AS TRUE WII GRAPHICS SHOW US WHAT WII CAN TRULY DO

GALAXY PRIME 3 MONSTER HUNTER 3 ETC

3RD PARTYS HAVNT DONE WII GRAPHICS THEY DONT EVEN USE WII CODE ITS PS2 PORTING


WHY ARE YOU USING TECH AS AN EXCUSE WEN THE GRAPHICS OF ABOVE MENTIONED GAMES AINT WII GRAPHICS IF THEY WERE YOUR POINT WOULD BE TRUE BUT AS THERE NOT

YOUR POINT IS WRONG

WII IS AT LEAST VERY LEAST 5X PS2 AT 480P LEVEL RENDERING

I DONT THINK PS2 PORTS WITH SLIGHTLY SHARPER COLOUR AKA GODFATHER WII IS AT ALL WII GRAPHICS


WHY ARE YOU JUDGING WII ON PORTED PS2 GRAPHICS THAT MAKES NO SENSE
