There has been quite a bit of talk about Z&W's sequel and I seem to remember murmers of it being planned (don't quote me, rumors aren't reliable). Luckily it really doesn't take a lot to build a game like this in terms of investment and I'm pretty sure they've made their money back and then some on the game.
The big reason I think a sequel is likely is because the game has had a huge grassroots following to get the sales it did and the people who loved the game have driven those sales. Ideally this would mean that now that this previously unknown title is known to be good it would get a lot more coverage and potentially a lot more investment in advertising this time around which could really help sales quite a bit when combined with that grassroots PR.
Personally I think they'd be silly not to make another and capcom love's sequels so I think the odds are very good.
PS - Besides it sounds like they've already sold at least 2 copies =)
