Call of Duty: Black Ops confirmed for Wii photo

If you prefer to shoot foreign people in a lower resolution than usual, Activision has sorted it all out for you. Call of Duty: Black Ops will be coming to the Wii, ensuring that those lacking a 360 or PS3 can still get in on all the murderous fun. As if there was any doubt that this game would end up everywhere.

"Black Ops will be available on all four platforms, PS3, X360, PC and Wii, on 9th November," states the evil publisher. 

Although Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 lacked a Wii version, Treyarch's CoD games usually find their way to the plucky white waggle box. World at War enjoyed a stint on the Wii, so it shouldn't be too surprising that Black Ops is headed there too. In fact, I'm sure we can expect to see appropriately labeled Black Ops games hitting the DS and iPhone as well.

Black Cops coming to the Wii? Yay.

Oh Black Ops, never mind.

@Cyber: CoD - Black Cops does sound pretty awesome. They could totally forgo the whole war thing and just make it a buddy cop game, featuring the likenesses of Terry Crews and Wayne Brady.

"i'm betting the wii version will outsell the others"

Probably not outsell, but I'm sure it will hold its own considering COD3, COD:WAW, and COD4RE all sold over a million units on the Wii already. So I'm sure this one will fallow suit as well.

let's hope we're finally going to get the fps for the wii that we've been waiting so long for now. seriously, i can't play these games with the two stick controls, and it's ridiculous that we haven't got a worthwhile shooter on the wii yet. what am i saying, it's another call of duty, so it's almost guaranteed that they'll half ass the wii version.

@hardock spiffy

yeah just like the world at war and cod4 wii versions did


oh wait


@bobyoko

you cant play a FPS game with analog sticks?

should i assume you cant dress by yourself either?


i mean its not that hard unless you have the motor abilities of a really stupid rock

i always hate when these pc and wii gamers start with all the "oh no so hard" bullshit, specially wii owners, they actually settle for stuff like MOH heroes and the conduit just becuz so far those are the only multiplayer shooters that have managed to do wii controls right, instead of playing real quality shooters like bad company 2, MW2, killzone 2 and halo 3


and what makes you think wii controls are better for FPS? they are apparently harder to program, shooting stuff on screen is more or less easy but circle strafing is a nightmare, not to mention the wiimote has too few buttoms to make some shooters nowadays work properly


all thats without mentioning the lower resolution and less processing power


so whats the trade off exactly, your giving away so much, what do you get in exchange




i may sound like a hater but i assure you im not, im just stating one single truth that has been around since day one about the wii,

It is possible for some people to be unable to get used to a control scheme.

Cool, I really like the Call of Duty games that Treyarch puts out on the Wii. Can't wait for it.

@Videodrone31

how so?

everything Treyarch has done was done before and much better by Infinityward


case and point, all of Treyarch games are considered fillers between each Infinty ward instalment of the franchise

Wow. Jim Sterling, I just lost all respect for you. "plucky white waggle box"? No. I rarely use waggle for anything unless I have to in my wii games.
If someone buys an FPS on Wii you assume it's because they like "lower resolution than normal"? Wow. You sure it's not because they want to point where they want to shoot, as is the most intuitive FPS control design ever made? Again, whatever respect I had for you from your review of Red Steel 2 just disappeared. You disappoint me.

I really don't know what you're talking about. I have played through games like Halo 3, Resident Evil 5, and COD6 on 360, just as I have Metroid Prime 3, Resident Evil 4, and COD4 on wii- a fair comparison for all 3 in each list respectively. And I find that time and again I would much rather play the Wii games than the 360 ones (unless a friend is over- RE4 has no co-op). The controls are better, no doubt.
You are definitely a hater, even though you profess you aren't. At least you realize you are. But no, you are just wrong. Period. The end.

So you're saying that because YOU don't think the controls of any shooters on the Wii are good besides Metroid, that NO ONE ELSE is allowed to think they're good? Rock-solid logic there.

While I'm quite used to dual-stick controls, if done correctly, using the Wii remote for aiming is about a thousand times more accurate for me. And last time I checked, that doesn't make me wrong about anything.

I want to buy a game called "Black Cops".

And yeah, I'd rather play this game with Wii remote/PS Move than with dual analog. Aiming feels more natural, and more importantly, fun, with IR pointing.

wow, i donno about that. I doubt the graphics are gonna be good enough to make it as fun. For those without any game system, I say go play airsoft. Its way cheaper, way more fun, and theres even a place that sells video game working replicas. its awesome, take a look. http://www.airsplat.com/airsoft-video-games.htm
