You'd be surprised how long it takes to actually make a proper game. The main reason most movie cashin games suck is exactly because the developers only get a year, maybe two if they're really lucky, to work with. That the first game felt unpolished only reinforces my point that games take time. Even having a framework is no guarantee that is lessens the time to build. It often does, yes, but if there are plenty of times where the developers have to rebuild the framework from the ground up to fit in new gizmos.

Considering the A's movie release date though, the more likely theory at the moment is marketing.
