I’m sure a number of you remember Sadness, a Wii game that was going to focus on dark themes and atmosphere. Sadness was talked about for years, but the public was never really shown much to make anyone believe the project was nothing more than vaporware. Based on everything that has happened, it should be no surprise that the game has been canceled and the composer has released some “work in progress” songs online. You can check them out right here.

Thanks to Tyler for the news tip!

“There is so such thing as a distinction between gamers. We hear stories all the time of 60-year-olds walking into stores [in Japan], playing on a demo machine for 15 minutes and proving themselves to be pretty good at the game. They’ve obviously played it before, either at home or on repeated visits to stores, therefore they are obviously fans who know what to do and how to play. So there’s no need to aim it at a certain type of gamer. People of all backgrounds enjoy the game.” – Monster Hunter Tri producer, Ryozo Tsujimoto

Even though Monster Hunter Tri is a pretty hardcore game, I believe it can appeal to everyone. When the game arrives in North America and Europe, though, I have a feeling that many more hardcore gamers will be playing rather than casual gamers, especially online!

“As of February 2010, Chinatown Wars’ unit sales in the US represented nearly 50 percent of the unit sales of all M-rated DS titles in the history of the platform. Piracy is a real and present danger for our industry and must be addressed, especially in the handheld market. The commercial performance of Chinatown Wars has certainly suffered at the hands of piracy.” – Take-Two CEO Ben Feder

Piracy on the DS has been a huge issue for awhile now. Games are leaked online before they’re officially released and unfortunately, a great number of gamers resort to playing without paying. I wonder how Nintendo will address the piracy issue with their next handheld…
