The same question could be asked for a lot of other anime that get reboots/re-imaginings/late continuations. The recent Evangelion movies are a good example. "Why do this now?" Everyone has different reasons (the most common ones probably being funding and interest levels). For RM, perhaps someone really wanted to see this done, but couldn't get the legal and/or financial issues worked out until recently? Who knows.
