Reggie Talks Grand Theft Auto on Wii, Disaster: Day of Crisis, and More

 
Continuing the interview with Nintendo of America President Reggie Fils-Aime, MTV Multiplayer now asks about a number of topics more specifically related to the Wii, such as the absence of a Grand Theft Auto title for the console. With Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars finally available on the DS, the natural question was when/if we could expect to see such a game appear on the company's little white box. Reggie was noncommittal about the prospect, reaffirming his prior statement that he is definitely interested in seeing the game come to his side of town. "We think the volume opportunity is there," he says. But "It's Take-Two and Rockstar's opportunity to make the game." (link)
