Oh, you're not wrong. But I am reminded of Darkstalkers and the 'release port/stale bread' argument.

Namely, Capcom has a series that had many fans begging for new content, new games. In response to this, Capcom re-released a port that had already been released maybe a dozen times. Fans bought it, but not enough. Next time talk came of a new game, Capcom replied 'lookit these numbers, not enough interest.'

Which began the stale bread metaphor. If people say they're hungry, but then they get offered bread; this bread is stale and moldy. When the bread is denied, the person replies 'guess you weren't hungry.'

'Can we get Bastila? Malgus? HK? Nihlus? Mission?'
'You can have Zaalbar.'
'... no, thanks.'
'Guess you don't want KOTOR/TOR products.'
