That's just the boot of business, I'm afraid. I do wish Dinosaur Planet could have come out as intended but I also recognized that releasing an ambitious original IP so late in the N64's lifespan would have been suicide from a business standpoint, just ask Conker's Bad Fur Day. I don't think Rare could of afforded another bomb on that level.
I guess one thing that they could have tried doing is push development onto GCN without the SF change but then I honestly doubt it would have even come out there, the only reason it did was because it was far along enough and was also more importantly Nintendo's game due to alformentioned IP change. I feel like an SF less GCN Dinosaur Planet would have really been pushed further onto Xbox just like Ghoulies, Kameo and PDZ were and eventually come out there similarly half baked and flop into obscurity anyway.
