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

Hyperion on 26 May 2009

I have more than enough evidence to belief this game is indeed coming to the Wii.

Thank you so much IW!!! :D

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.

First of all, how many active PC gamers are there out there? Secondly, how many copies of CoD WaW were sold on PC? Also, the question of PC vs console games is a lot more complex that just controls. I personally don't buy games on my PC because they won't run smoothly on my PC, and I prefer playing on a big screen. I know that Shio says that the PC market is much bigger than the console market, but is it really? You cannot just compare the PC user base to the PS360, because nearly everyone who buys those machines, buy them for the games

So what you're saying is ther are many other factors that would attribute to the sales variance other than say...controls?

I am saying consoles versus PC is very different from consoles versus console.

What you have to look at is why they would think that one version is superior to the others. The main factors are going to be controls, graphics, sound, multiplayer, achievements/trophies. So if we look at that, which is the most important, well I would say controls, graphics and multiplayer. So, on what system are they best? Controls are obviously going to be a major factor, but you agree that multiplayer is better on PS360, then surely the game is going to be far inferior on Wii, because MP is such a big thing

See, you understand the overall concept so why in the world did you agree with Starcraft's correlation of controls to sales in the first place?

I am saying that that has to be a very large factor in why people would choose the Xbox version rather than the Wii version. If you think the the IR aiming it far superior, why would you not buy the Wii version, it is the main factor

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.

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

Nice to see you didn't disagree with my previous statement and i didn't bother to give examples because i didn't really think you believed in what you were saying.

If you are telling me that you honestly think that sales of Wii FPS are directly correlated with the fact or perception that IR control is poorer than dual analogue and that there is no other possible explanation then i remain astounded.

I'll give you a hint though, do you suppose there might be a difference in the quality of the shooters other than control?

And someone brought up the bullshit "sales were horrible in comparison", completely ignoring that WaW followed CoD4 on the HD systems, which the Wii version didn't.


It has been a time I said this to a Wii-Fanboy, but: DAMAGE CONTROL COMING IN!



Imagine not having GamePass on your console...

Ask those that bought Godfather on any console other than Wii.  Ask them why they didn't buy the game with the best control.   Chances are you'll find most answers have little to do with controls themselves.   And for the record, every review for the game agreed that the controls were far superior on Wii.  Not a FPS but the context is the same.

Excuse me?  Where on earth did I say there is no other possible explanation?  Can you not win the argument without deliberately reframing what I have said?  Has it occured too you that part of the quality deficit on the Wii when it comes to shooters could relate to the controls?
