Remember when the developers also announced two other games, and one of them had artwork which was just stolen Silent Hill fanart? Or was that also part of Sadness?
I would rather see Platinum Games pick up Project H.A.M.M.E.R.
And here is an update...sadly not great news, but not bad news

It was another of their non-existing games.
Never forget:
SEEMS LIKE ONE BIG SHIT

Found this thread again via a google search which led me to a Wii-dedicated website quoting the story. And they happened to use a GIF I made eons ago. Heh.
The Sadness IP is in the hands of a consortium with 4 studios currently fighting for the bid, and that while we at HullBreach and Cthulhi would like to make a competing bid and secure rights to Sadness, unfortunately we cannot at this time. Sorry to fans for any inconvenience.
Uh oh.The most LOL thing here is that NintendoLife devalued their website (as did other blogs who republished it, including Kotaku) by covering something that was so transparently amateur hour and phony to begin with. Totally embarrassing. Selling out your editorial gatekeeping duties for a few extra hits.

Not at all. They're pretty great with revealing eShop releases.Hasn't Nintendolife always been complete rubbish?

I remember a bunch of "Nintendo---" sites early last gen which were just awful.
There was cubed3 as well, since we're talking about sadness.

Truth bombs right here.
Though I do remember with fondness and a slight hint of embarrassment all the bizarre manufactured hype for Sadness way back in the day. The premise sounded somewhat novel, and it was an exclusive when the Wii was in a severe drought and next to no legitimate 3rd party support. It was a non-game and yet I remember the collective community (including myself) hung onto it with a death grip.
WE HIGH SCHOOL FRESHMAN YEAR NOW
First time I saw something about this game, I was interested. Now I don't know any more.
Let's see if other companies revive other Wii titles which were canned, like The Grinder
This is actually their sophomore project.This is clearly their sophmore effort.

Sadness was one of the main reasons I bought a Wii at all.I was dumb
To see it resurrected as a 2D puzzle platformer instead of what it was meant to be is super disappointing.
Why does Project H.A.M.M.E.R. keep getting compared to Sadness? Project H.A.M.M.E.R. was a real game that Nintendo Software Technology was making that many people played a hands-on demo of at E3 2006 (I was one of them). Sadness was concept art and buzzwords from a company that never released anything ever.
Why is there a bidding war for an IP that has never had a released game?
