I remember hearing from many people, "I wasn't going to buy it, but it's only available for a limited period, don't want to miss out on it".
I voted with my wallet, and didn't buy it. I lost the vote though, since it sold pretty well.
Which explains why they did it. They created some hype, and earned some money, and still kept it for making some quick money by remaster / re-release when needed.
