(Classic) Bomberman coming to XBLA?

Of the games guaranteed not to bomb if they get dropped onto Xbox Live Arcade, Bomberman scored a respectable number ten. Now some bigwig (read: "online marketer") at Hudson is saying that bringing Bomberman to XBLA is "under evaluation" and that the Saturn version would be a prime candidate.

Saturn Bomberman is often cited as the pinnacle of the series (feel free to disagree) and itself featured online play via the Saturn's "Netlink Playable" service. Throw in Live support, eight-player multiplayer, all on a console that people are actually buying (fanboy trivia: how many units did the Saturn sell versus the 360?), you have yourselves a hit of planetary proportions.

What does this say about the chances of the totally angst-ridden, badass Bomberman throwing a tantrum on western 360s? Furthermore, of course it's "under evaluation." The entire internet has been asking for it! If Hudson hadn't put two and two together by now, we'd be disappointed.
