Their original plans for early 2013 didn't work.
Rayman Legends, The Wonderful 101, Pikmin 3, Wii Fit U, Deus Ex and Ninja Gaiden 3 were supposed to exclusive launch window games. They were either delayed or went multiplat.
The delays of 2013 games also affected 2014 games. Monolith had to work on Pikmin 3 and A Link Between Worlds instead of focussing on X and Ganbarion (the guys behind Pandors's Tower) worked on Wii Fit U instead of a new RPG.
3D World, Pikmin 3 and The Wonderful 101 don't look cheap to me.
Even Super Mario Galaxy was more expensive than many so-called 'AAA games' on 360 or PS3.
