The blockbuster smash Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare finally receives a Wii release! Read on for more details...
In the same week that Activision announced a DS version of Modern Warfare 2 was to be released coinciding with the console release of the game, the publisher announced today that the game's prequel, Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare is to receive a Wii port in the form of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare that also falls on the same release date as Modern Warfare 2 and Modern Warfare: Mobilized.
Interestingly enough, the game is to be ported not by Infinity Ward, the original creators of Call of Duty 4 but instead Treyarch - the developers of Call of Duty 3 and Call of Duty: World at War, both of which were huge success on the Wii selling over a million copies on the Nintendo console each.
With the game about to reach its second birthday (its original release was in 2007!), 360 and PS3 sales of the game still continue to breach the Top 10 charts to this day. Could Activision be on to something here, or will the buzz surrounding the game be killed off when Modern Warfare 2 drops on the same day as this 2-year old smash hit?
