Nintendo doesn't like games that have a target audience over the age of 10, so no.

Ehh, I dislike GTA and it's already not-so-stellar graphics would be pretty poor on the DS.

I dont think it would be really good because since ds cant support really high quality graphic, it would look kind of weird and they wouldn't spend a lot of time working on making it.

Yes it'd be possible but no it wouldn't be any good. It could be good if they pretty much just straight out ported an earlier game like suggested... but no one would play it really because it'd feel out dated even if they did upgrade it. The GTA series just doesn't stand to the test of time ... I remember playing GTA I and II on the PS and I don't think I could stand playing it again now that I've tried IV... If they tried to do a GTA on the DS it's sales would probably be powered on franchise name alone and die out after a while :/

The 2D GTA games were crap, the DS could handle a 3D with slightly worse graphics than GTA3.

It would be bad because of the large area the game needs to be good

No. The graphics would be gritty (in my opinion) and would be hard to play. best left to a big screen

NO, it would be crap, to confusing and the ds couldnt handle it, unless it was like the original pc gtas , with the birds eye views

GTA definitely does NOT fit the style of the DS, and I think that it would be a shame if Nintendo ever decided to allow Rockstar to produce a DS version of GTA.

If it works on the GBA, Then of course it'll work on the DS!I loved the bird's eye view better to be honest!

Perhaps. But it would have to be reworked.

A top down style like the first version would be acceptable, however a 3D version wouldn't be good, since the DS doesn't have enough power to generate a good amount of background objects for it to be fun.

I believe pretty much the same. GTA Advanced wasn't bad but it wasn't good either. The only part I liked about it was the fastest car was a formula 1 racer car! They've never had those in a GTA game so I was like totally flooring it when I played the game. Went soooo fast.

I dont believe that a game like GTA would work well for DS. The graphics would probably be really bad. Rockstar wont do it. And the majority of people who own a DS are kids, do not much money would be made because of parents not wanting their children playign a game like that.This is kind of like Midnight Club for GBA. A grat game on a console, it sucked so much on GBA.

Ofc. not.All these big games which are on big consoles are bad on DS.Look like Call of Duty 4(well i think it is bad because it is not real game).Same way with GTA 4 it would be with really bad graphics and half of the things are missing or it would be with GTA 4 name and like GTA 1(New missions and graphics ofc.)

Off-course it would be a good idea.If they make them like 1 and 2, then i see no difficulties. They managed to play it on a mobile so why not on a DS.

No. I had trouble even playing CoD4: MW, despite bearing with the horrible graphics.I can't really imagine GTA on the DS. I don't want to see some 2D game like Mario and once you reach the "end" of the map you'll just bump into a "wall" or something.I can't imagine guns in the DS either. They'll either look like a demented metal spoon, or they'll be a tiny dot.I can imagine it being with the PSP. I've seen quite a few good 3D games on the PSP.
