If the Wii U version doesn't sell 10 million in a month it is proof it is not a hardcore console.

This statement is completely ridiculous.

I doubt there will even be that many Wii U's in existence at that point and most people are going to buy it on the system they already own as that is what they are most familiar with and that is what all of their friends who they've built up online over the years are going to be playing the game.

I expect no more than 2 million for this life on the Wii U. It should be much larger next year when their are more console in circulation.

I'm sure KylieDog was being sarcastic. No one expects Wii U to come out of left field with 0 install base and do the same numbers as the PS3 version of the game. I would expect the Wii U version to sell about the same as the PC version of it. Somewhere between 2-3 million. 4 million highest if miracles happen and the Wii U sells like hotcakes.

If the Wii U version can break 1m as a launch game with no real install base (i.e. match Wii) it should be considered a success.

Next iteration will surely grow that as now Nintendo owners have a real COD experience with tons of control options to boot.
