Leetgeek is largely correct on this one.
But it goes beyond just FFXIII, it covers FFXIII VS, Crystal Tools development and more.
However, amortizing costs is done by all publishers. It just currently happens that Wii/DS are providing a disproportional amount.
The debate here lies with the idea that too many of the Wii/DS titles are lower budget for the sole purpose of funding the higher end titles and engine. This is half correct. The titles fit the market they are on BUT, as suspected, they also provide the funding behind the incredibly expensive high budget titles.
