Rockstar would have to downgrade the graphics so much, and make differerent controls. Its just to much work. Unless it also comes out on the ps2, then they might just port it over like most of the wii titles.

I hope Nintendo gets GTA. I won't necessarily get it (I've never really been a GTA fan) but it will be good for the company

I believe if it does come to the Wii, it will just be the scraps from the next-gen versions or a spin-off of an older GTA. Manhunt 2 is a great first step because it's a proper game already coming to the PS2 and PSP. But I just don't see a Wii GTA having much commercial appeal if it's watered down and not the real deal..

Basically Nintendo are bargaining for something which will not be worth it in the end.

If this happens lets hope Rockstar will be professionals about this and not give it a port like many other companies are doing. They could definitely be that kind of developer, the one that actually could use the possibilities the Wii can provide. They could give so much to the genre with it.

Indeed.  If done right, a Wii GTA could be amazingly fun.  There is so much to do in GTA it would be perfect on the Wii with the Wiimote's ability to do things in many ways.  Just imagine the possiblities.

"In an interview with an American television station, Reggie Fils-Aime, the president of Nintendo of America, said that Nintendo has done all it can to persuade Take-Two Interactive Software to bring the Grand Theft Auto franchise to Nintendo consoles, and it is now up to the third party publisher to decide whether Rockstar Games' immensely popular series will appear on Wii. We should know more later in 2007 regarding this issue."

One game doesn't remove the stigma of kiddie, hate to break it to you. As long as Nintendo pushes the family friendly persona, it will be considered a kid system, despite how untrue that might be.

Do you realize Manhunt is said to be the most violent game ever and it is coming on Wii??

There is nothing as "too violent for this console". If it says reggie is trying to convince  someone to get a game, believe me, there is serious interest in it. You  seem to be forgetting several things.
