Can speaks truth. Even though old old plot devices like Santa, Hayate's first girlfriend, Himegami and Hayate's brother resurfaced, remember that Hata was afraid the series wouldn't even last 100 chapters. I can say that a lot of these future developments were planned, but Hata might not have thought of using them until chapter 160+.
It all depends on fan letters. If it turns out that pure comedy is more popular, Hayate might as well continue as it has been. There's also a chance that Hata wants to try something new; he'll either switch HnG to something more serious or he'll finish funny-HnG and start a new series. We'll see.
