They could've told Activision that it just can't be done, the Wii just can't handle it.

Activision let Infinity Ward skip the Wii with Modern Warfare, they would've let Treyarch do the same.

No they couldn't. Treyarch doesnt have near the influence that IW has. Treyarch was the B team for a while. If Acitivision tells them to do somethng, they were going to do it. And its not like the entire team was making those ports. 

IW didnt want to make those games for Wii because they felt they didnt want to compromise their work, so Acti had a small team from Treyarch do it. Activision knew it could be done.

If Treyarch were really held in such low esteem by Activision, they wouldn't have been working on a megahit franchise in the first place. They may not have had as much clout as IW, but I see no reason why Activision wouldn't have listened if Treyarch had fallen back on the "hardware can't handle it" excuse.
