No, patience isn't the key, pretending it's never gonna happen is the key. I mean seriously, plan for this patch to not come out for a year. An entire year of your life. Are you still going to obsess about it, or are you going to find something else to do? Believe me, I've played the"F5 OMG IS XXX ROM OUT YET? F5 F5 F5" game before, and it is the only time I'd ever say I was wasting my life.
edit: *cough* alternatively you could teach yourself Japanese for a year, but that's neither here nor there
