Aren't you expecting too much?Call of Duty WoW on sold 1.2million and it's probably the biggest gaming franchise nowadays. |
Call of Duty 3 was pretty bad, Call of Duty Advanced Warfighter (the breakout title for the series) wasn't released on the Wii, and Call of Duty World at War wasn't that great of a game ... Basically, the handling of the Call of Duty series on the Wii has been far worse than it has been on the HD consoles which has (understandably) translated into less interest in the series.

Just a small correction: COD4 was Modern Warfare. I think Advanced Warfighter is a Ghost Recon game, although I could be wrong on that.
On another note, I thought World at War was supposed to be good? I have never played it before, so I couldn't really comment on it.

I have CoDWaW and it's a great online FPS. Not as robust as it is on HD systems but the best currently on Wii.
I can't speak for others but I think Conduit will outsell it. Not only is Conduit a Wii only title, it's not 'gimped' in any way. It's a fully fleshed out online game. But primarily the most important difference is it's rated 'T' and not 'M' which means anyone with kids will be more inclined to pick up Conduit where you shoot aliens with no blood over CoD and a LOT of Wii owners have/are kids. So irregardless if the game is for dad or Jr Conduit is a better title to get.

I really think going for the T rating was the smartest move anyone could have made, no need to force the M rating on it. I think what hurt Madworld, other then it being "Just Ok", was the fact it was trying to go for a M rating. I'm hoping that Grinder & Gladiator AD do the same as the Conduit, but from what we've seen it's unlikely, lol.

Madworld was fine as it was, reducing that to a T rating would have sucked out the essence of that game. HoTD:Overkill on the other hand... would have sold a hell of a lot better if guys could play it in front of their wives or kids. M rating is fine, being a Guiness Record holder for most F bombs is not. It was a cute and ballsy move by Sega but not very smart business wise to attempt such an immature 'mature' rating.
