It's a good piece but isn't addressing the '3rd party titles don't sell on Wii' issue. Because when that comes up it's in reference to how X game sells on a Nintendo system compared to a non-Nintendo system and only in regards to 'core' games.
It's of no surprise to anyone (or shouldn't be) that Guitar Hero/Just Dance/Lego/Skylander/Exergaming/party games/platformers/licensed titles sold best on Wii and 3rd parties did great on those with Wii and Nintendo systems in general.
But as CoD shows, that even the biggest 'core' game out could only sell around a 1m units on Wii, despite selling 10-15x that on HD consoles.
