Well, there are several things to be considered.
1) the 32 bit versions of Snatcher weren't made by Kojima, they are just ports of the game.
2) The only versions of Snatcher that Kojima worked on are: Snatcher for the PC88, Snatcher for the MSX (which can also could only be considered a port) and PCE CD- ROMantic.
Of course SD-Snatcher is a spin off, but it is a variation of the same theme. The same characters, similar situations, music taken from it fo rthe 16 bit versions of the game. And even it had the ending that the original didn't, parts of which were later incorporated into the CD ROMantic and subsequent versions.
Now, you need to define in what terms you are talking about. he original discussion up there was if Kojima had gone back to Snatcher. Of course he has. It is either he remade just the 16 bit version, or that he revisited the ideas of the game and created SD Snatcher. In either way, SD Snatcher is a very closely related game, created by the same person with the same characters and being fan service in the widest of definitions.
It is not a port, but it is going back over the same theme.
