Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii, Wii U eShop | 8 Comments
“Sadness” is a game that should sound familiar to many Nintendo fans. Nibris announced the project as a Wii exclusive way back in 2006 before ultimately pulling the plug in 2010, which was accompanied by news of the studio’s closure.
In a bit of odd and unexpected news, HullBreach Studios and Cthulhi Games have announced plans to revive Sadness as a Wii U exclusive. The title is tentatively targeted for a 2016 release.
Here’s what you should know:
– Nibris struggled with development with their Gamebryo engine programmers at Frontline and their graphics partner Digital Amigos
– Will stick to the game’s original idea
– Could be some changes and there with regard to characters, mechanics, setting
– Will keep the Gothic noir visual style with a few exceptions
– Will likely be made in Unity
– Starting from scratch
– New elements will be introduced including RPG and puzzle-based mechanics
– There’s also a shift to 2D
– Cthulhi and HullBreach are working as equal partners on the project
– More news at “Indie Sanctum 2014” in October
You can find more quotes from HullBreach Studios and Cthulhi Games over at Nintendo Life.

Fuzzy Wuzzy Games is resubmitting its indie release Armillo to Nintendo today. While it’s been a fairly long wait for the title, the game will now feature more polish and difficulty select.
Fuzzy Wuzzy said on Twitter:
Resubmitting final today to NOA and NOE.*sigh* But in the process, we've managed to polish the game more and added difficulty select.
