Forums - Nintendo - Modern Warfare 2 is not on the Wii!

If every Wii/PS360 owner thought that Wii had better controls, then we would see comparatively higher sales on the Wii

Then why with the PC having by far the largest install base and suprior controls to dual analog does it not see software sales that blow away the HD consoles?

Your correlation is incredibly dubious.

A number of reasons, not the least of which is that many now view dual analog as the optimal shooter controls, due to their balancing of flexibility and ease of use.

Another of course is piracy, and the overall gaming shift in the shooter category (at least high-budget ones) too consoles.

Yeah, stop assuming like an idiot that we share the graphics>controls opinion. We don't.

You're making the assumption that most people share your opinion that Wii shooters have better controls.

Sales figures would indicate the opposite.


How do sales figures indicate this?

The Wii has an enormous base and comparitively lessor shooter sales...


The number of factors which you have entirely failed to take into account manufacturing this correlation is astounding.

who cares?

they could bring this out on wii at half price, and im still buying it for 360

pointing shooting is overrated, i have wii, i dont feel like i can only shoot on it

i'll take 360 for the supposed worse controls and the not garbage online and graphics

wii is where i'll be buying punchout, ea active, and ju-on. not cod.



Last year's game of the year turned out to be Silent Hill : Shattered Memories (online GOTY was COD 6).  This year's GOTY leader to me is Heavy Rain.

If you don't care then why are you in this thread? 

Clearly people who only have a Wii, can't afford another system and would like to play a version of the excellent COD series would care.  Multiple console owners are in the vast minority.

The lack of ANY factors being produced to counter my argument is EQUALLY astounding.

See, there you go.  Now you're making a reasonable argument as too why the Wii should see a semi-port of MW2.  Ultimately though, that is up to Activision.

This whole better controls argument was something of a fallacy.

well seeing how badly the wii version of CoD:WaW did compared to its 360/ps3 counterparts I wouldn't be surprised if infinity ward really did pass on making a wii version of modern warfare 2

 

Great, then what are you bitching about?  You have the Conduit.  Go have fun with it and don't worry about the big boys playing MW2 on the big boy consoles. 



Ugh, not this argument again. Wii version announcements are always later than the others, it has been for COD 3 and COD5. Between Viper and myself, we've heard enough within the industry to give light to a Wii version in development.

End this BS already.

That because your statement is a non-sequitur.  Sales figures are irrelevant to the superiority of the controls.

 

It's like I said, Wii sells better so I guess it must taste better too.   Makes as much sense are your statement does.
