I doubt Infinity Ward could not care less about you or what you think of them OP OR the extra 1-2 million Wii sales. Yes they are happy to ignore 1-2 million sales.....that pretty much tells you how much the PC, PS3 and 360 versions sell.

No, it shows their lack of effort

Ok, now this is one of my pet-fucking-peeves. Lack of effort? No. Just different priorities for resources.

Infinity Ward only have a certain amount of resources, these are already diverted onto three platforms, spreading them off to support a fourth platform will have a detrimental effect on the final product. Diverting resources to the Wii will mean that the game would take longer to finish, or it will be of a lower quality - and there's no way that Activision will allow a slip in the release date.

Which is why Infinity Ward had a job listing for Wii developers :P

Well, that's all good then, my post was more of a general attack at that fucking-piss-annoying "devs are lazy" comment, y'know, the one that Sony fans spouted every time a poorer version of a game came out on the PS3.

However, how recent was this posting? There's no way they could get the game done in six months, perhaps they're preparing for a later released Wii version, after Christmas, perhaps. The reason why I'm thinking this is that MW2 was started before WaW was released, and, as such, they had no idea of the success of the Wii version - what's more, wasn't the Wii version a slow-burner in terms of sales (I don't know for sure, I'm not a follower of Wii sales, tbh) - which means that it probably wasn't considered a financial success until months after release.

Well developers are needed a few months after projects are started so know that and the job listing was around Christmas so if they had MW2 in the planning for Wii and started it before the release of W@W then Christmas would be around the time serious development would start on all versions but since they already have nice sized teams from CoD4 returning for PS3360/PC development they might have needed more people for Wii development.

Nothing is set in stone but I say wait till E3 coming up in a week until people start writing it off like it's just not coming.  Much like W@W was announced on Wii later then the HD versions, the first footage of W@W Wii didn't show up until E3 with Nintendos press conference, who knows they may wait for E3 again to show off the Wii version.  But there's two guys that work in the industry that use the forums here that have said they've talked to IW. So I'm siding with them until E3 if no news pops up at E3 then I'm on the boat of "don't hold your breath"
