...So 450,000 and 360,000 units (Z&W then NMH) are considered major 3rd party successes? I was just using 2 of the better-reviewed games that had sub-par sales on the Wii. If both were successes, what about the PS3/X360 games that had similar reviews (80%+) that managed to sell millions like Dead Rising, or Saints Row?

A straw man? Really? Nobody has even mentioned Dead Rising or Saints Row, much less accused them of failure.

Could also go with:

Madden 09 (360,000)
de Blob (200,000)
Fifa 09 (190,000)
Geometry Wars: Galaxies (70,000)
Trauma Center: New Blood (150,000 + PAL)

Just for a few of the higher rated 3rd party games in the Wii library that didn't perform too well for sales.

Highlighted the one which can actually be called a flop. The other citations just make you look ignorant for reasons which have already been pointed out by other posters. I don't know why you're so desperate for CoD to fail on Wii, but maybe you should wait for a few weeks of serious estimates to show up before you rub people's faces in it.
