Super Paper Mario was going to originally b e a Gamecube title but was delayed and released on the Wii. The Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess was completed on the Gamecube and delayed another year for it to be ported and launched first on the Wii and launched a month on the Gamecube. There wasn't a huge Nintendo fan outrage when either of these things happened.
With Super Paper Mario, the game wasn't complete so switching development from Gamecube to the Wii is a good choice. With Final Fantasy 15, the game wasn't complete as well, many rumored had it that Square Enix was having issues getting the game to run well on the PS3. So if the game isn't running well on the PS3, why would we bitch about it being on the PS4 instead? I'm no longer interested just because of how long the game has been in its so called development, not because it's on the PS4.
The Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess though. That was a slap in the face to all Gamecube owners who waited for the game. Getting snubbed by Nintendo who basically threw it in their faces that if you don't want to wait a month, then get Wii. Most Nintendo fans took the disrespect from Nintendo and bought the Wii and Twilight Princess at launch. Week one sales for the Wii version of Twilight Princess was more than one third of Gamecube's Twilight Princess lifetime sales.
*edit*
Wasn't there another Gamecube game that was cancelled and appeared on the Wii instead? A Donkey Kong game?

I don't see the connection between our subject and those examples. zelda tp and super paper mario were relased on gamecube (as was promised). we are talking about a game being announced at the beggining of the generation, exclusively for a console, ending up not released on that it.

Super Paper Mario was announced for the Gamecube but it was never released. It was cancelled and later released on the Wii. There's no difference between that game and Final Fantasy 15 with what happened except for, rumored, Square Enix couldn't get Final Fantasy 15 working properly on the PS3.
