This is the wrong trope. Evidently his games have a wide range of tones, but Da E alone doesn't work for that.

!!Tropes present in Sakamoto's games:
* DarkerAndEdgier: The ''Metroid'' series, with its gritty sci-fi setting and elements of horror, and the ''VideoGame/FamicomDetectiveClub'' series, with its DetectiveDrama mystery plots, are darker than both Nintendo's typical output and most of Sakamoto's other games. He typically works on much more lighthearted, kid-friendly, and often off-the-wall games.

Aside from the ''Metroid'' series, he has also produced much quirkier games such as the ''VideoGame/WarioWare'' and ''VideoGame/RhythmHeaven'' games. He has described one of his personal goals as a game maker as to put out products that are distinct from those made by Creator/ShigeruMiyamoto.
