Infinity Ward:"Wii can’t deliver on our goals."

[justinian]

I don't get this statement from IW.

COD:WaW sold well on wii for a FPS. I think 1million+.

For a console starved of FPSers you would think they can at least get a wii team onboard and recuperate their salaries from the profits.

There have been lots of talk about wii being dirt cheap and dead easy to develope games for so what is the problem?

They claim to want to give a cinematic experience, there are two HD consoles to satisfy this need. Job done. Objective met.

How could giving the wii a release change this?

The accolades for GOTY and whatever gaming awards will be based on the HD console's version, not the wii's.

I don't get it.

It would be best for IW to have stated "We don't want to develope games for the wii because we don't want to. End of".
