Sure, that is without a doubt true, but there is a lot of people excited for games like CoD: WaW on Wii and The Conduit. I am sure if the developers put more effort into Wii games, more "core" gamers would be attracted to the console.

oh and im pretty sure the only reason treyarch made a wii version was so they could earn more money? sorta like how they also made a ps2 and a ds version
That is a good argument. You could also say that a lot of developers are too cautious when it comes to the Wii as well, which could be a reason why the Wii does not have as many FPS games. The standard controller/mouse and keyboard configurations for FPS games have been around much longer than the Wii Remote+Nunchuk configuration.
If any of those were just to make money, they would probably be bad games. However, this is not the case, as the Wii version of CoD: WaW has been received well by critics (high 80's average on GameRankings).
