"Perhaps we should move on to other games on our wishlists, though, as Itoi-san has once again emphatically ruled out producing another entry in the series, saying it's "totally impossible". On this occasion, though, he gives some solid reasoning to Game Watch Impress as to why that is the case, explaining that he makes a living elsewhere and that, creatively, it's difficult to match the three games already produced."
" When I made 3, I thought I could do it, so I did it.
Among big-time popstars, if they, you know, put out ten albums, around the fourth album, they can't make very good songs. The albums sell well, but everyone at the concerts wants to hear songs fro mthose three albums. Everyone.
I'm glad that video games are not my profession. If it was my job, I would've already made 4 and 5."
I guess his reasoning for not wanting to make Mother 4 is a valid enough, but it still makes very sad..
