COD3 sold more than the PS3 version, then COD4 wasn't released simultaneously with the HD versions, so the audience moved. It wasn't until years later that they started making ports, and we all know what happens to late releases. The things the Wii audience has had to put up, not even knowing if the next version was going to be released, etc. No wonder they jumped ship.

oh please they missed ONE year, one. Lets not be so dramatic. THere was ONE late released game, all others have released the same time as the HD versions. I say they also jumped ship because COD3 for Wii sucked hard, much harder than the PS3 version, so i would say that is a factor why they ran.

That one game that it missed happened to be THE game that propelled COD from moderate success to superstardom. Had the Wii gotten MW1 at the same time as the others, it and all the following Wii COD games would have sold far more.

As it is, their sales still turned a profit and almost all cleared the million mark despite the Wii missing the formation of the current fanbase.
