Call of Duty's brand name is on the 360 and PS3. It's not that strong on the Wii yet, because this is the first MW game on it, which is what made CoD strong on those systems.

...and Metroid Prime 3 is the latest entry in a huge Nintendo franchise.  Yet its sold 1.55M LTD -- no where near any of the 360 or PS3 CoD games, or many of the big shooters at all.

I don't think you could say that, if Metroid Prime magically went HD, and moved to the HD consoles, it wouldn't sell like hotcakes.  I think this "CoD isn't big on Wii... yet" concept is a little... off base.

Metroid isn't a shooter franchise, let alone a "huge" one for Nintendo. But judging by your post history, I'm just going to assume that you're being obtuse for shits and giggles.
