I am not surprised one bit. Phil clearly stated it takes time. After the X investment all focus can now easily shift to games. Common sense really.

One would assume that hardware and software investment would be separate entities.
I.E. You don't wait for one to do the other.

For example... Microsoft would already be planning and building the Xbox 4 and making investments towards that end, these things do take years.

We don't know exactly how Xbox is ran under MS. For all we know there budget for software and hardware could fall under the same budget system. Which would explain the lack of games last year due to there investment with the X. Not saying that's how they operate however it wouldn't be the same as Nintendo and PlayStation that's what I think. 

New year, new budget for Xbox and it seems to be going the right direction, MS seem pleased to continue there support for the brand rather than reducing there budgets year on year until it dies.
