When it comes to 3rd parties developing for one system it comes down to how big and experience the developer is for the multiple systems they want to devlelop for. It cost a lot of money, time and resources to develop for more than one platform. Sometimes publishers will contract out that work to another developer. What you are probably thinking is no BIG time publisher will commit to just one platform as that can limit their profitbility. A developer on the other hand is best to concentrate on one system as trying to release a game on many different hardware because it splits your time and development for the number of people you have and can reduce the quality of your games.
There are plenty of developers that only concentrate on one or 2 platforms. Also MS has their own IPs sitting around waiting for MS to either have internal team or external teams get to work on.
I do agree that established IPS that are multiplat already will not be up for grabs.
