More from press release...
"We thought long and hard about bringing back NT for a sophmore season," said Panini America CEO Mark Warsop. "Oh, who am I kiddding," he quickly added. "We don't think long and hard about anything around here. How else can you explain us abandoning the most loved hobby product in a decade after one year, while continuing to churn out crappily blinged-out Prizm cards of guys with the tops of their heads cut off. You just can't. Here... have another beer with me as I belt out 'She's Like the Wind' on our office karaokee machine. God I love that man. Hey, Product Development Guy, make a note that we're gonna do a 2013 Panini Golden Age of Swayze set!"

If Panini was smart, they'd only release NT for Baseball once every couple years. This keeps the buzz going about the product, as we're still chatting about the 2012 release. It gives vintage collectors something to look forward to plus it mixes in modern players well. If the market is diluted with NT for Baseball year after year, then there would be less interest and value would plummet.
Plus if they keep releasing NT for Baseball, sooner or later, they're going to run out of stuff to put into them like cut signatures and the likes. There is only so much of that stuff left and those who still have it are going to price it so high that card companies cant afford to put them into products anymore.
But, I could be wrong!
