No, but I can show you screenshots of the games they haven't released yet. :P
So the short answer would be "No", you cannot produce so much as an actual SCREENSHOT of this or any other alleged Nibris game.
Read my words: if Nintendo hasn't heard of them, then they're nothing but a bunch of hot air when it comes to development.
Frankly, I find it amusing that "Sadness" is being noted by the gaming media as a moody survival horror game when there hasn't even been the slightest hint of its existence in screenshot form.
And you missed the point of the concept art completely: they took something from a portfolio that they were NOT authorized to use and passed it off as concept art.
1. They screwed over their artist.
and
2. They lied to the general public by suggesting that pieces of artwork were indicative of their game when they, in fact, were designed around a completely different game.
Not gonna fault them for that one? You think it's ok to f*ck over artists and lie to your potential customers?
All I see is a sad company (no pun intended) who has generated piles of hype over concept art, announced 5 games they're supposedly working on (even saying such nonsense as "From the developers behind "Sadness"...." in their press releases, despite the fact that the game hasn't even been shown in functioning form yet), stole from one of their contributors and outright lied to their potential customers.
Whether Nibris ever actually releases a game or not, they've already shown us what a clownshow they truly are.
And for all the "reporting" IGN and Gamespot did about Nibris, neither one has updated their Sadness pages yet.
"I mean, c'mon, Viva Pinata, a game with massive marketing, didn't sell worth a damn to the "sophisticated" 360 audience, despite near-universal praise--is that a sign that 360 owners are a bunch of casual ignoramuses that can't get their heads around a 'gardening' sim? Of course not. So let's please stop trying to micro-analyze one game out of hundreds and using it as the poster child for why good, non-1st party, games can't sell on Wii. (Everyone frequenting this site knows this is nonsense, and yet some of you just can't let it go because it's the only scab you have left to pick at after all your other "Wii will phail1!!1" straw men arguments have been put to the torch.)" - exindguy on Boom Blocks
