Bitterness in the Wii fandom?

Would all depend on how you defne "big". But anyway...

That's the whole point of what im saying. Why would the 3rd parties bother to make big huge blockbuster games for Wii, when party games are outselling certain efforts by 2:1 (in the lowest case) and making millions upon millions... When those said blockbusters are selling so well on PS360?

I'll give you an example, using a big hit game you gave me.
Call of Duty: World at War (launched day and date with PS360 versions) - 1.40M (PS3 - 3.81 360 - 6.15)
Carnival Games, Game Party, Deca Sports - 3.54M, 2.17M, 2.14M

Now, what impression do you think that has on developers?

Do you notice how all those minigame collections you used were all released early in the Wii's life and their sequels have performed poorly?  It is clear that consumers do not want any more of those.

This CoD: World at War thing has been done to death, but sure, let's go over it again.  CoD 3 on the Wii outsold the PS3 version.  The next year, the PS3 and 360 get the break-out hit CoD 4: Modern Warfare, while the Wii gets nothing.  Then, the following year, all the consoles get W@W.  The difference here is that W@W got to ride on the success of MW on the PS3 and 360, but not on the Wii.  Then of course there is the removed features on the Wii version of W@W that make it less desirable.

It is just more of what we have seen for the past three generations.  Third party publishers treat Nintendo consoles like a red-headed step-child, and expect the same results as they get on other consoles.  It is ridiculous.

I could name a few recent ones that are managing to sell pretty well. 

I can understand the lack of CoD4 hurting the WaW sales on Wii, but what was the reason for a lack of CoD4?

WHY do they treat Ninty like that?
