Actually, this game is doing quite well comparatively to the DKP. VGC has it at 191st with 312,596 in the US. It will soon drop out of the charts. But that's only 100K away from the current prediction (or 32% of the US figure).
For the Xbox 360 version, the PAL region is roughly 35% of what the US sold. Applying the same logic, that would put the Wii's PAL version somewhere at 109K. That already exceed the the current prediction.
The CoD3 (Wii) is only selling slightly more than CoD3(Xbox) at this point, but still has less total sales. CoD3 (Wii) sold 45,750 copies in January for a total of 222,500 sold. Compare this to 254,700 sold for CoD3 (Xbox). These are North American sales, btw. Either this needs to go down or the Xbox version needs to go up, but I think it is more the former.
@sirvenom, the PGNx Media review confirms there is no multiplayer of any kind in the Wii version of CoD3, but even then, they gave it a 9.3 for a great single player campaign. The key is that the minigames like fighting for a gun works a lot better on the Wii.
The aiming video submitted by Jaded_Alyx is pretty cool. It looks like they finally brought the accuracy of PC controls to console...cept on the Wii you completely lose the graphics. If only there was a PS3 + Xbox 360 + Wii merger...

In UK, it's still in the top 30 Wii title at 21st.

I wouldn't be surprised if this game already exceeded its target. A good buy.
