No, they didn't buy timed exclusivity. The game did horrible in terms of sales in Japan, so they released it again on PS2. It managed ~400k in Japan, which is about 80K better than the GC version did. So porting was 100% worth it.

If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy
