"But when the Wii does get a "large" third party game, while it does sell very well, it doesn't match the sales of the HD versions."

World At War on the Wii did not follow 4, which made the series the smash hit it is now. The Wii had a two year gap between CoD games. This is relevant because you are implying the Wii audience did this, when there are factors that would have made the game sell less on the other systems had those been duplicated.

True.

However, MWR followed WaW, and so did MW2, and we know how that ended up.

Not exactly a fair comparison, but you can see what I'm getting at.

Really not fair. It had no marketing, and very little shelf space, all to ensure MW2 had the biggest opening ever. So again, not the same conditions. As jarrod ponted out, 3 had the same conditions, and the sales were around the same as the HD versions. Even before WaW came out, 3 was matching the sales of the PS3 version.



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.
