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

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.

I honestly don't see how that would have any detrimental effect to the wii version...

I doubt Infinity Ward could not care less about you or what you think of them OP OR the extra 1-2 million Wii sales. Yes they are happy to ignore 1-2 million sales.....that pretty much tells you how much the PC, PS3 and 360 versions sell.

No, it shows their lack of effort



Too bad, playing FPS-games on the HD-consoles is just awful with the bad controller

Actually, we got The Conduit. That is more than enough to keep us happy.

 


Also, if you're that desperate, as others have recommended, buy a 360/PS3. Simple as that. Or do an online petition.

Yeah we are gonna waste a lot of money for one game>_>

Someone's awfully defensive.

Wrong. I'm attacking people for ignorance, not being defensive. I don't even play these games. It's the principle I'm calling on these jerks for.

Then you obviously didn't see the sales of 4 compared to every previous Call of Duty game.

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

Well, Infinity Ward just don't want to code for a Wii version. I'm guessing a lot of the art assets can be shared between the PC/360/PS3, but can't with the Wii due to power restrictions. It's not just about the graphics, the power restrictions do hinder the intensity of the battles on the Wii for multiple reasons (number of units, physics, graphics etc.). When I play the Wii CoD games they do tend to feel more like CoD1.5 then the latest CoD.

I am a bit suprised they've not got another group working on a port though. I still think the best CoD experience is on the PC, you get good controls with the least power limitations.



@LordTheNightKnight

Ya its a bit higher than the other ones. Its a bit late where i am, can you just get to the point ur trying to make?

Get over it. This is entirely expected. They don't want to compromise the proper game, spending time working on the Wii would have meant less time to work on the PS360PC versions, so the game would have had less polish. I don't see why they would develop for Wii when CoD 4 sold well over 10m on PS360PC. All they want to do know is to make sure that they get those versions right, and try and beat the masterpiece that was Call of Duty 4.

Oh, and while you go on about the whole controls vs graphics crap, the gameplay in CoD 4 was enhanced by the graphics. It would not have felt so intense on Wii graphics, and that would have ruined the experience. And the friend codes system would not have worked particularly well online

That would be more presentation not gameplay... >_>

You realize W@W has online and it's fine you just have to add friend codes for friends which most people don't care <_<

The engine for CoD4 runs on Wii and IW could do a lot better job making the engine look it's best...

*sigh* And personally there's a lot of evidence saying this game is coming to Wii, you can even pre order it at some stores already, just hold your horses until E3 at least people -_-

No, it shows their lack of effort

Ok, now this is one of my pet-fucking-peeves. Lack of effort? No. Just different priorities for resources.

Infinity Ward only have a certain amount of resources, these are already diverted onto three platforms, spreading them off to support a fourth platform will have a detrimental effect on the final product. Diverting resources to the Wii will mean that the game would take longer to finish, or it will be of a lower quality - and there's no way that Activision will allow a slip in the release date.

Which is why Infinity Ward had a job listing for Wii developers :P
