NeoGAF user Vern (reported by Nintendolife) predicted L.A Noire would come to the Switch, and he was right, but now he has started an interesting rumor for GTA and Switch fans. This is what he said:

Been sitting on this cuz I’m not sure it’s really worthy of a post (because I lack the most important details) but f*** it, why not…heard awhile back more from R* is in development, from my most reliable source, but wouldn’t confirm what or when. Essentially was told it shouldn’t be a surprise what title it is. I personally fully expect a GTA title (whatever it may be) because it makes sense since you see everyone clamoring for it in every damn thread, and it’s the biggest game on Earth. Now watch this post get turned into Youtube videos and GoNintendo news articles again, when I said nothing at all of actual substance. For real this is in no way confirming a GTAV port is coming, it’s just my solid as f*** source giving me some info and my own educated guessing. Probably shouldn’t have said anything because I have nothing, and in 6 months or a year when another R* title gets announced I can claim I was right. So just ignore what I said somehow. I blew it.

Vern is a somewhat reliable source because when he said L.A Noire would come to the Switch, it did, but it doesn’t make this %100 real. Remember it is a rumor so it could easily be fake. The only GTA games released on a Nintendo console were China Wars (DS) and Grand Theft Auto Advance (Gameboy). If GTA V comes to the Switch, most people will probably buy it because who doesn’t want to play GTA V on a tablet while flying.

It seems like Nintendo is finally getting good 3rd party support. Many 3rd party companies are going to release games on the Switch, and it looks like they aren’t just releasing 1 game on the Switch and abandoning it. On other Nintneod consoles EA released one Fifa game then abandoned it, but now they might release the future FIFA games on the Switch. FIFA producer Andrei Lazarescu said, “I think we are going to see more FIFA on Switch in the future.”

The WII U had terrible 3rd party support. Ubisoft was the only companies that truly supported the WII U. Ubisoft released many games on the WII U, but almost all of them were missing some features for example Watch Dogs on the WII U didn’t have free roam online.
