GTA port coming to Wii

A port of the previous GTA's is going to be hitting the Wii, according to http://www.nintendic.com/news/205.

I don't know whether its true or false.

Edit: Hold on a sec, its not there anymore. Hmmm I guess that means its false. I found the article on Google news though so I thought the article might have a bit of credibility.

Yeah, the news is still on Google, however Google just links to the page that has the news. Nothing is there anymore. Someone should have copied and paste the news here.

I never played a GTA game before. :/

This would be awesome. GTA 3 is one of the funnest games I've ever played. Just killing people and trying to get away from the cops is all I ever did, but it was really fun.

Yes, having GTA for the Wii would mean great sales for the product. I will be looking forward to GTA when and if it comes out for the Wii.

I thought your Mii profile picture had murderous eyes.

Yeah Nintendo needs to get with the times and say its ok to have M rated games, If the Wii gets GTA and its good we could see more GTA games coming to nintendo meaning that GTA will no longer just be for the PS and Xbox making the Wii a better system.
But Nintendo really just needs to let almost any Rated M game on it (except for ones that are 100% sex <Guy game, Playboy masion> But games like GTA they need to just say ok I dont like what your game is but I want to get more gamers on our system.

actually a while back Nintendo announced they'll basically let anything on the Nintendo system now.

It has to do more with the old CEO of Nintendo, he was pretty conservative you could say, and didn't like M games. The newer CEO is fine with anything.

I disagree. The Wii doesn't need that junk. Anyone hard up to play out a thug fantasy can just go buy a Playstation. The Wii is all about being different. It doesn't have the technical specs to outgun the PS3 or 360 and yet it is the fastest selling system this holiday season.

Nintendo is going in the right direction. They don't need to pull in hardcore Playstation gamers. The target for the Wii is orders of magnitude larger than the Playstation audience.

There's a lot more of us middle-aged and older people interesting gaming, with a lot more money to spend, than there are pimple-faced teenage boys salivating for another "Hot Coffee" hack or schoolyard gay antics in Bully. Let Sony have THAT piece of the gaming pie.

Agreed. Nintendo's supposed to be going family-friendly. I'd like to see them stick to their guns. And don't kid yourselves - GTA won't sell consoles - not at this point in the game. Zelda, GoW, H3, FFXIII - those sell consoles - not GTA.

Companies are in business to make money. Nintendo could make A LOT of money by adding more mature titles to their arsenal. Imagine, all the awesomeness of Mario, Zelda, Metroid mixed with the awesomeness of the GTA series and other huge mature game series'...it would be amazing. It would be very smart on the part of Nintendo to get in on the mature game action because it doesn't matter how innovative the controller is (THE MAIN SELLING POINT OF THE WII) if nobody wants the games. And I agree, there are a lot of good games already out on the Wii, but it could definitely use some death.
