Join the NVC crew as they discuss the possibility of GTA 5 coming to Nintendo Switch.
Grand Theft Auto V was released over 9 years ago, but the player base is largely intact due to regular updates to the Online Multiplayer. The game had some technical issues at launch, most notably a CPU utilization issue, but most recent chips shouldn’t have any issues running it.
Subscribers of the Extra and Premium tiers of PS Plus will lose access to a total of 12 games during the month of June, 2024.
I think everyone and their sister owns the game by now. They likely want to squeeze the rest of the holdouts before GTAVI releases.
That game comes and goes from subscriptions so frequently I think it's expected now. Like rdr2 on gamepass Rockstar Games only last a max of 3 months On a service
indivisible was pretty neat. Cute artstyle, fun throwback to older RPGs, shame its leaving but it is on sale often
Definitely. I e joyed what I played of it. Still gotta grab the physical at some point
I'm not surprised by GTA V removal, Rockstar never allows this game to stay long on a subscription service.
They usually allow 4 to 6 months.
Yeah, they do that routinely with both GTA and Red Dead.
But it's because they know they can still sell them so they take them off and on to these sub services in cycle.
The weird thing to me is why is anyone still buying those games at this point? You would think after 3 generations of being sold GTA 5 that everyone and their momma would have it by now
I fail to see how the loss of an almost 11 year old game that released across 3 generations is in any way a problem.
From school politics to ping-pong, pistols to police procedurals, let’s dive into the best that Rockstar has to offer.
We won't know until e3. But if it does I will be defo be double dipping.
Yes it’s just a matter of time.
Gta 5 is on 360 and ps3
The Switch is more powerful than the 360/ps3 now let that sink in.
I'm sure they are at least thinking about it. The switch is becoming wildly popular because there simply isnt anything else that can give that same portable experience. I hope Sony makes a handheld with a 6 inch screen now, and one that takes sd cards... but sony would have to have a blockbuster on the handheld, something they dont seem willing to do yet.
assuming they even got it to run on Switch, it would still be the worst version. i don't really see this happening honestly. its just too much of a game for switch, from the worlds, to hard drive space, to all the DLC downloads for all the GTA online stuff, nintendos lack of a proper network service... no thanks.
The Switch version would have issues happening for a very simple reason: file size. The current total file size of GTA V is around 72GB. Even with a high capacity MicroSD card, that one game would devour the majority of your storage all on its own. Odds are the only way they could reasonably navigate that would be making multiplayer an optional download.
The Switch and its inability to store large capacity games without sacrifice is one thing that is going to hurt it until the end.
Let's not ignore the fact that the handheld mode runs a bit weaker than last gen consoles. If we look at that too, the Switch version was never even on the table. GTA V may run on last gen hardware, but play it on current gen hardware and you see just how inferior and technically lacking the original release was.
