The Wii version is still nowhere near 360 numbers though is it (not even half).....

This explains why the Wii won't be getting Modern Warfare 2, not worth the effort when WAW is having trouble selling even a million lol.

 

As I spoke with a friend at IW, they've already been told they are to make MW2 for Wii as well. That means that the Wii IS getting modern warfare 2. Nice try tho.

Really... 'cause my friend at IW told me that they aren't making a Wii version O_o

Oh, I didn't know you were a developer also. I generally get to meet people at a lot of events, like GDC and whatnot. I'll double verify the data at the upcoming GDC. Maybe I'll see you there?

 

 

 

Just a question if you can answer it.. How long ago was this? I mean MW2 has been in development for a year now so if they only started now.. It may be yet another gimped game

Looking good on sales, now they just need to fix the leaderboards.

Im not sure when they started it, but I spoke to him last month. Hard to gage. Basically IW didnt want to do Wii games, and Activision said "yes, you are, if you want to continue making COD games" So IW might be doing it a bit begrudgingly.

*sigh*  Let's review, shall we?

Wii gets CoD3 - horrible game.
PS360 gets MW2 - fantastic game.

What kind of sales do you think the next game in the series for each console would get based on that?  

Now, what trouble does the game seem to have selling a million units?  It's 4-5 weeks away from it.  How can a guaranteed million in sales be considered trouble?

Now, back to original point but applied to the recent game.

Wii CoD:WaW - Pretty damn good game.
PS360 CoD:WaW - Pretty damn good game.

Now what kind of sales do you think we'll see for MW2 on all consoles?  I'm sure you understand now.  If you don't, I have to assume you simply choose to ignore the facts.

Does being in the media and being told by the publisher count?   I've also stated the game is already in development.

^ the 2 dudes above me.

it has been said many times that you cant compare the sales of the wii version to the HD versions, CoD has a fanbase in the HD consoles while on the wii it is building fanbase, also many people who own a HD console and a wii bought it on the HD consoles because it had more features.

 

But the wii version has he Unique Wii Remote controls! But yeah you are right (although the Wii userbase already had COD 3).

 

3 was NOT the breakout game 4 was. Which system didn't have 4? THAT'S why WaW is selling lower numbers.

Attach rate has nothing to do with it.



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs

Are you kidding me, Kenology. I never see you play...I have played, tooo much. I don't think you play enough :P

I've fell off a bit over the holidays but I've been back in the mix recently.  Someone should organize a 4 on 4 VGChartz match.

End of 2009 Predictions (Set, January 1st 2009)

Wii- 72 million   3rd Year Peak, better slate of releases

360- 37 million   Should trend down slightly after 3rd year peak

PS3- 29 million  Sales should pick up next year, 3rd year peak and price cut

Someone mentioned profit. Surely this is what will be the driving force behind the forthcoming COD wii.

It would be interesting to see the profit made on each console based on the sales of COD:WaW

I mean, did those 800,000+ copies of the wii version make a liitle/lot less, as much as or more money than say the PS3 version.

Surely this is what will decide if the wii gets all the upcoming COD releases.

A lot of the people calling profit on the Wii version are forgetting the huge campaign CoD:Waw Wii got on the US TV during the holydays.

Commercials are not cheap...



PS3-Xbox360 gap : 1.5 millions and going up in PS3 favor !

PS3-Wii gap : 20 millions and going down !
