Sadness: a chronology of disappointment
24
We had such a good time reading this, we thought we'd share for a laugh. If you're the kind of person who really splits a seam reading about Duke Nukem Forever's glacial progress, you're sure to get a laugh out of the comedy of errors that we know as Sadness. This vaporous piece of software has been teasing gamers for nearly two years and, despite that lengthy timeframe, we've yet to see even a single screenshot. Stop by Wii Fanboy's Sadness chronology and relive all those precious moments like it's your first time.

Sadness looks like such a cool game.
Too bad it'll probably never see the light of day. Oh what could have been.

well, look how reputable the announcement is!
Awakening is comming! COMMING! And also, as a note to whoever designed that: I'm pretty sure we've all seen Scriptina font before. Very pretty, very overdone. It would do you some good to get a font that is not included in windows by default.

It seems to me that though it’s funny to bust on them for things like a spelling error, they are a foreign company and have tried to use English to design part of their site. (Read through it and you can see that it’s not done by folks in the US or UK.) That’s a lot more than most of us can do with a language we don’t know from birth.
Most of us didn’t comment on coming being spelled wrong because it’s a petty attack on them.

Never took them seriously. Especially when Nintendo fans back in the Revolution days claimed that Sadness was the first Wii game announced. The hell, anyone can announce anything, but the fact that they were not accredited Nintendo developers should have raised an eyebrow or two.
But no, for some reason everyone gave them legitimate coverage.

I find it amusing how many people still say how incredible this game looks. Nibris have yet to release a single screenshot or demo. What exactly are people judging?
