The fact that they dropped the "Call of Duty" brand basically confirms there will be no Wii version. Modern Warfare is a PS360 brand, not a Wii brand. Call of Duty is a Wii brand. Expect the next Call of Duty title to be on the Wii again.

And yes, assuming I'm right, this is extremely foolish of Activision. It's foolish to drop the best-selling Call of Duty name anyway.

What the...?  Brand?  The hell does that have to do with anything?   With that logic there should never have been RE5 on PS3/X360, DQIX on DS/DQ10 on Wii and the list goes on and on.

I've heard some intersting reasons why MW2 won't be on Wii but this one ranks as likely the most inane of them all.

Hey, thanks for that.

I'm not saying I'm 100% sure of this. Most publishers have their bullshit reasons to not put their games on the Wii. Capcom is a prime example of doing their best to find the most inane reasons not to put their games on the Wii. In this sense, it makes sense if Activision decides the Modern Warfare brand stays on PS360 as a special hardcore franchise, and the Call of Duty brand, which would be more mainstream, to put on the PS2 and Wii also.

I hope I'm wrong, I'd love another Call of Duty game on the Wii. But I think my thinking is pretty in line with how publishers think, which -to be fair- is in fact pretty inane in itself.
