LOL they did get Treyarch to do MW for Wii thats my whole point and surprise they were a secondary studio. 

We are going to have to agree to disagree. You have absolutely no proof that Treyarch was happy to make a Wii version of anything from the interviews ive seen from Treyarch they are indifferent at best. I didnt say that Acti didnt allow them to do it, Im saying IW didnt WANT to do it for whatever reason and they gave it to someone else. IE Treyarch

Treyarch is NOT a secondary studio. They don't make secondary versions of games. They make their own games.

A secondary studio is, for instance, n-Space, who made the DS version of Modern Warfare, or nStigate Games, who made the PSVita version of Black Ops 2. They are secondary studios because they're tasked with making the games for "lesser" platforms than the main ones. And by the way, n-Space's work on the DS versions of Modern Warfare 1 and 2 demonstrate that Activision had no problem with having a secondary studio make a version of IW's game... they just didn't feel like organising a Wii version.

As for Treyarch...

Treyarch had dedicated Wii teams by the time of WaW. And by 2010, they were promising to blow people away with the quality of Black Ops:

Also in 2010, Treyarch's head made the explicit statement that the studio was "committed" to the Wii:

And even in 2012, with no further Wii games coming from Treyarch, it still got positive mentions:

There's plenty of evidence that Treyarch consider the Wii to be a worthy system, and that they care about it (again, I don't mean "care" in the emotional attachment sense).

I would argue that MW for Wii WAS a secondary version of the actual MW game, hell I would say the same thing about COD3 considering how crappy that turned out for Wii. Matter of fact the fact that they ported MW1 and 3 negates your argument since those are games they didnt originally make themselves.

I think you need to do just a bit more research, Nstigate did NOT make a BLOPS 2 version for Vita. It is an ORGINAL game. How are people not getting this by now. ANd honestly everything you've just posted sounds like PR speak from a company. Of course they are going to talk up and say nice things, to do otherwise would be suicide.

I would say that Treyarch is not a secondary studio, but instead the team within Treyarch responsible for the ports is a secondary team within the developer.
