I think Suda is happy again : )
I felt bad for him after the Japanese release... it had to be getting to him never seeing any of his games take off.
We are sure to see a sequel now, Suda himself said he is dieing to make one if they let him... after the warm reception of NMH in the west, we can rest assure they will let him make one!!!
