There's like a 3 year gap between each of his games and I don't think anyone is taking 6-9 years to translate his stuff. Anyway, translating isn't exactly quick, it's pretty normal for big games to take a year or two, even more so if you have to rip it apart to put together an all ages build. Editing phases take time too and you should be doing that if you're doing an official release, fan translations can get away with skipping this.
I think people have warped sense of time for how long a translation can take because a lot of HRPGs are relatively small games, so most aren't going to take more than a few months or so. Obviously the big stuff is going to take much longer. Do you think VNs take 1-2 years to get translated just because people are slow? Do you remember pre-worldwide video game releases when it took at least a year for games to get localized?
