Visa (V)

It's going to be amazing; Rockstar never fails to blow people away. It's speculated the over 1 billion on GTAVI budget when they spent an estimated $265 million budget on GTA V. It will be the best game ever imo.

You ever get tired of being wrong bears? The entire weekend spent jerking it to puts, all for today to V into their anoos😭😂😂😂

Fortress Value Acquisition Corp. V Announces Closing of $250,000,000 Initial Public Offering - FVAV

**Looking at this from an institutional perspective...** You and your friend are debating the ultimate "Buy the Rumor, Sell the News" setup.
To answer your question bluntly: **Yes, the base case is already baked in.**
Here is the institutional read on why TTWO won't magically double on release day, and what the actual wildcards are:
# 1. The Market is Forward-Looking (It's Priced In)
The market doesn't wait for the game to hit the shelves to price the stock. During their recent February 2026 earnings call, Take-Two officially raised their FY2027 net bookings guidance to a massive $6.65–$7 billion.
* **The Reality:** The current share price (hovering around the $210–$220 range) already assumes GTA 6 will be the biggest entertainment launch in history. Day-one sales records won't shock Wall Street; they *expect* them.
# 2. Addressing Your "Delay" Hunch
You mentioned a hunch that it might be pushed back again because they don't *need* a holiday release.
* **The Correction:** While Rockstar has a history of delays (moving this from 2025 to May 2026, and finally to **November 19, 2026**), Take-Two recently went out of their way to reassure platform holders (Sony and Microsoft) that there are zero planned delays. CEO Strauss Zelnick explicitly confirmed the November 19th date is locked, with the multi-million dollar marketing blitz kicking off this Summer.
* **The Risk:** Because the November date is heavily priced into their FY2027 guidance, a delay into 2027 would actually be a massive negative shock and trigger a sharp algorithmic sell-off.
# 3. The "Cyberpunk" Risk
Your instinct here is correct. A broken release would be devastating, but the probability is incredibly low.
* **The Moat:** Rockstar's proprietary RAGE engine and their obsessive culture of polish (seen in *Red Dead Redemption 2* and *GTA V*) are exactly why they took the extra time to delay until November. They know a buggy launch is the only thing that can kill the golden goose, and they will not rush it.
# 4. The Real Catalyst: Recurrent Spending
If you are looking for what *isn't* fully priced in yet, don't look at base game sales. Look at the new **GTA Online (GTA Plus)**.
* The street models standard retail game sales very well. What analysts struggle to perfectly model is how effectively Rockstar will monetize the online ecosystem over the next decade. If the new GTA Online introduces highly addictive, high-margin recurring revenue streams that exceed the historical GTA V run rate, *that* is what will drive the stock higher post-release.
**My Take:** If you own it, hold it for the cash-flow generation of the online mode. If you are looking to buy now hoping for a 50% pop the day the game drops, you are late to the trade.

WHAT A V ON A MONGO DB LETSSSS GOOOO BULLS 🥳

It's coming out on xbox too but hardly anyone owns one. PS5 is approaching PS4 sales though, and GTA V currently holds the biggest launch weekend record with $1 billion in sales over 3 days, and that was console only and at a lower price point than gta6 will be. From SONY's perspective, I think they are treating it as a time limited exclusive title at this point. I think for anyone that doesn't already have a PC, buying a ps5 will be a more appealing idea than spending $500 (or more) on ram alone.
It will almost certainly set new records, but if people are expecting that already, then maybe.

Yeah, you must've missed all my other comments that it would V at that point. I buy dips. Here I was correct that overnight it would sell off before ripping..

No one is falling for this crap. It just does the V thing on the spot like it always does.

V to 700

How many times is it going to V today. Damn

Once again, WSBers manifesting the only V they know in their life by spamming “wen V” in the daily thread

V time, 700 in 50 minutes

Are we gonna V?
Give it to me strait

no V on Friday but V today.
make it make sense.

Feel like that was true of V and IV too.
I remember there were TV commercials for IV.

In Tehran, reports are that units in V the regular army are "standing down" and are not actively trying to suppress any protesters. Other reports indicate that the revolutionary guard is assembling in north Tehran in an effort to survive Israeli attacks.
Things really do look like there isn't any centralized government left. If we did have troops on the ground it appears like effective resistance would not be possible.

I think it’ll sell very well out of the gate, but that’s not an indication of any sort of success.
The reason GTA V was such a financial behemoth for Take Two was because of shark cards. If the multiplayer for GTA 6 is underwhelming and doesn’t maintain players it’ll be a massive failure.

I haven’t seen the V in months

“Because you have seen the V, you believe. Blessed are those who have not seen the V, and yet still, believe.”
