Since it was announced, one publisher has jumped ship, the game has been delayed on more than one occasion, and people have been dripped information and media (none of which hints at there being any real content) at a painfully slow pace.
NIBRIS has been monumentally unlucky, work on the game has ground to an ignominious halt for the time being, or Sadness -- gulp -- doesn't actually exist.
Things aren't about to get any rosier, either. In an email received by a NeoGAF poster, NIBRIS revealed that Sadness wouldn't be on shop shelves before 2009.
Don't let this be a DNF.
