Recently, WiiHD had a chanceto speak with a Treyarch representative about the matter. The reasonfor the exclusion of the larger mode is massively surprising.Apparently, the Wii cannot sustain the World at War engine with that many people on-screen at the same time. This is what Treyarch had to officially say: 'We are proud to bring what we believe will be the best-looking Wiigame this fall to the community, but that comes with technicaltrade-offs. The difference between competitive MP and co-op isnon-trivial. Think of a size of an MP level, then compare that to an SPlevel. Then consider all the AI code, level scripting, and endlessother content in a SP / co-op environment that is just too much for the Wii to sustain with our engine.' The competitive multiplayer better be killer.
