Given the resources we have, and the great things we are planning, it just isn't in the cards right now. We're sorry that we can't provide this right now, but we will consider it once we are able to devote enough resources to it to make something we think you'll really be happy with."
Yes, people would cry. You can please some people sometimes, but you can't please everyone every time. And sure, hindsight is 20/20. Is it strange that I'd rather have nothing if that's the alternative to mediocrity?
Not strange at all. I just think that the reasonable-minded would be drowned out by the proverbial thrown bottles and chairs. I'm of similar opinion that wish; They could have told us sooner that it wasn't working out and they'd try extra hard in the future to make something worthy of our time and attention, but they didn't, so we can either hope there was a good reason for it or wash our hands of Yoshi P, quit the game, write letters to our congressmen and burn effigies.
