Re: Yu Suzuki revisits Shenmue in GDC 2014

GDC Organizer 1: "We need to book a postmortem for this year's conference. Any retro games hot in the media lately?"

GDC Organizer 2: "Well there's a lot of buzz about Shenmue."

GDC Organizer 1: "Cool, I don't think that's been done before. But Yu Suzuki's Japanese, we'll need a translator."

GDC Organizer 2: "Mark Cerny did it for us last time."

GDC Organizer 1: "More buzz! Give him a call."

Re: December 3rd Shenmue Day

Ok, so we're all in agreement that the following twitter accounts should be our target on the 3rd; @yosp, @amboyes, @giocorsi, @playstation.

Supporters can leave their message on the day of the event via the above twitter accounts , or by visiting TeamYu.net/Dec3rd

If anyone forgets, then please encourage them to still leave a message even if the event has passed.

Adam will make 2 videos, one addressing the general public, and maybe one for the dojo.

NEXT!!!!

1) Who has a Neogaf account? If we can get someone to post on that forum, we will have a major MAJOR advantage.

2) Message all shenmue facebook pages. Check out how many supporters this page has.
https://www.facebook.com/ShenmueFans

We NEED them on board.

3) Can we get the Shenmue master guys involved? Ziming, Yama or anyone else, do you have a way of directly contacting them?

Let me no if i missed anything out.

A game about waiting for Shenmue III

Hello everybody,

I had a crazy idea last night:

We create a small video game about waiting for Shenmue III. It's a meta game about all of us in shenmuedojo and the rest who have been holding on to a sliver of hope about Shenmue III.

Now you're probably wondering "who will want to play this, except maybe a few of us?". Well, the point of the game isn't to sell millions, it'd be free! The point is to raise awareness that SEGA is so slow/reluctant at making Shenmue III that fans have made a game about waiting for Shenmue III.

This wouldn't be a big game, it doesn't even have to be good, it's very existence should be worth the trouble it takes to build it. I also think it would be fun.

If we can get a large team working on small tasks it shouldn't take too long if it is well organised. We can use a silly RPG maker or something, it can even be text-adventure based! We can storyboard it starting from the first moment Shenmue II is completed and we all ponder about the next iteration of Shenmue all the way up to today's Shenmue III registration hoax and the Shenmue Tweetathon.

Share your thoughts and maybe suggest some things for the timeline. Once we have a bunch of exciting events that took place (including that silly Shenmue III hoax that shenmuedojo put in, like, 2004 lol) then we can map out a narrative to link these events.

It's weird to have spent a decade waiting for Shenmue III with you guys and I think it's an experience worth sharing, what do you think?

Re: A game about waiting for Shenmue III

Fantastic idea.

The game will be a FREE (that's Full Reactive Eyes Entertainment for you short-term-memory-only guys) game set in a bedroom. Pixel Art visuals. You walk back and forth, gazing at your pc sometimes to check for Shenmue III news on the internet. Besides that, you interact with half a dozen items spread throughout the room to kill time while you're waiting, namely you pick your Ps4 controller to play a mini-game of shorts (maybe a shmup?) and you pick one of the several porno mags laying on the floor to jerk off adding around half a hour to your score. If you turn off the pc, open the door of your bedroom and head outside it's game over, you lost all hope for Shenmue III.

Haha, I like the idea of it being set in a bedroom. Pixel Art visuals with a little dreamcast in the corner. This would make it easier on the game artists! Being able to pick up objects in the room in a Shenmue-esque manner might be cool too.

It would be nice to have a small window and a clock that shows the passing of time, i.e seasons etc.

If you don't think it's worth the effort to keep trying new ways to bring about Shenmue III, then that's entirely your choice. You can retire to your cave and forget all about it. Good for you. Enjoy. But you have no right whatsoever to tell anyone else to give it up and that they should be embarrassed for trying. Be it for a videogame sequel or anything else in life. Shame on you for that.

Very great well put together documentary. Always great to see Shenmue fans act of their desires like this. Cool that they went to Akihabara too, I was just there a few days ago as ive just finished moving back to Japan with my wife. Me, Yama and a few others like Shozo Mizuki have talked about going to Dobuita together too and im hoping to see it as the first time I lived here I didnt have time to.

wow they went all out, actually went to the real locations, that is dedication.

It would be nice if they did the same for Shenmue 2 locations, although i think it won't be as safe as the quaint japanese villages and towns, places like aberdeen are probably not as safe. it would be nice to see Guilin and they might as well forget the Kowloon walled city since it doesn't exist anymore.

Re: PS4, big new announcement next month

It could be anything really. But the chances of it beeing Shenmue (III or HD remakes or even both) are pretty high this time. Next month is going to show if all the signs are going in one direction or if we all misunderstood them and the post mortem event will just reveal Yu's spiritual successor...

Re: New Godzilla Film Trailer Leaked

Godzilla looks cool. It actually looks like Godzilla!

I was a fan of the Emmerich version as a kid (still love Zilla's design), but last I saw it definitely didn't hold up well. I was already a fan of Godzilla before then, having seen the old movies on network television and owning King Kong vs. Godzilla on VHS (which is a shittier movie than the Emmerich one).

So i'm genuinely looking forward to this. I've been wanting to see a modern great giant monster epic.

Re: Shenmue Postmortem Discussion

I'm honestly shocked at most of the responses here. I found the actual post mortem to be very insightful. It was great getting a peak into the inner workings of my favorite game series.The anecdotes, and early prototype stories - particularly the Peach Tree one, as well as the humorous convenience store one - really breathed some life into the talk, which was colorful and full of fan service. Hopefully Yu and Cerny do a Shenmue II post mortem soon, especially given the fact it's my favorite title.

Re: Phil Spencer - The Biggest Request is to Bring Back Shen

To me it sounds like he respects the series but is not willing to fund it. Obviously he'd like to house it if Sega did their part, as would Sony. We reach out to them for hope but at the end of the day it's Sega's problem not theirs. I'm still holding out that someone may do something of the sort, it'd be a big pull definitely, but can see why they wouldn't all the same.

Re: Phil Spencer - The Biggest Request is to Bring Back Shen

So you have money right? I assume enough money to live on? Well would you invest money into a business idea you have, one that is SO committed and enduring, despite having seen that same business model lose serious amounts of money twice before it?

When people here think about money and "yea give Yu the money", think about your own money, and regardless of how expendible it is to you, think about the fact of both past track record and your possibility of making a profit from a committed business venture.

Re: Phil Spencer - The Biggest Request is to Bring Back Shen

That's why I'm saying there needs to be a formula change. The demand is there. Not enough to turn a profit from the same ol shenmue formula but there's a way to make a game without it costing as much as the first two. I feel like half of the money came from the games being developed over such a long period. It changed a lot from the Saturn pics we've seen.

And if they get multiple ways to fund it the cost will be less for each party. That's why Sony or ms are critical. Without one of them sega won't do it.

Re: New "Hazuki Tiger" Jacket coming in 2014 (Insert Coin)

Ehh not too shure about those drawings looks a bit off to his real jacket i actually made a hazuki jacket and it is 100% accurate down to the pockets and the placement of the tiger n patches. the drawings just look off and it will most likely be wayyy over priced and not leather. my jacket is real cowhide leather and was 300$ just for the jacket. I will stay with my rendition :)

i wear this when i ride my motorcycle and yes i created a phoenix dragon mirror helmet too :)

Re: NeoGAF: New Japanese trademark from Sega (Shenmue)

Whenever developers/console companies say there's an impending reveal and they use the phrases "massive significance," "unexpected" or "something people will be really excited about" it never turns out to be anything I care about or would even classify as meriting any of those phrases. There are only a handful of games that I would call massively significant, unexpected or something people will be really excited about and feel I wasn't just trying to attract attention.

Those in no specific order would be:
Shenmue 3/remake (duh!)
Beyond Good and Evil 2
Another Earthbound game
Half Life 3
The Last Guardian

And that list is based only on what I've read for years online. Aside from Shenmue those other games don't mean anything to me, so I'm not saying that's my wish list.(I've played BGAE and the Team Ico games but I'm not eager to play their sequels) I just know people really want them thus making their release "massively significant." It's no surprise if another Uncharted, COD, Halo, Mario, DOA, FF, Sonic, Lego, Silent Hill or a racing version of any of the previously mentioned franchises is made.

http://i.imgur.com/ZZzWHHU.png

CLICK THIS LINK...
https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?screen_name=XboxP3&text=Shenmue&hashtags=bringbackOGxboxgames%2CSaveShenmue
...AND THEN CLICK "TWEET". That's it! :)

Phil Spencer (a.k.a. @XboxP3, he is the President at Microsoft Game Studios) will get a notification about your Shenmue request!

UPDATE: http://xbox.uservoice.com/forums/251647-gaming-achievements/suggestions/6028512-bring-shenmue-3-to-xbox-one (ONE MORE WAY to support!)

F.A.Q.:

Q: Why this is happening?

A: Because Phil Spencer said that he is open to hear ideas about original Xbox games to bring back, as can been seen here: https://twitter.com/XboxP3/status/471467263271657473

Q: Didn't Phil said they're not going to make it?

A: Phil also said Gears of War ran its course and then bought the IP. Decisions like that are not monolithic in nature. And, with the right pressure, he may change his mind about Shenmue, too!

Q: I have my doubts? Is this going to work?

A: Nobody in this world is able to know. However, when you TRY, big things could happen! For example, think back what attention and positive signs we managed to achieve so far with SONY:
- http://www.nowgamer.com/news/2157082/sony_wants_to_bring_shenmue_to_playstation.html

Re: NeoGAF: New Japanese trademark from Sega (Shenmue)

I'm a loooong time lurker on this site (got Shenmue xmas 2000 and was one damn happy 5th grader for several months) and am just now making an account.


My two cents; I've read hopeful yet vague announcements over and over for almost 15 years now. For the last 10 years they've been consistently disappointing. Plus, as much as I hate to admit it, I've never met a person in real life who shared my enthusiasm, or any enthusiasm at all, for Shenmue. The closest I've had to a Shenmue convert was a lacrosse buddy in high school who liked to come to my house to play plinko in Hong Kong. As it turns out, a surprisingly small amount of people in real life would like to play a game of lucky hit.

I WISH Shenmue was super popular because I want Sega to have a valid financial reason to finish the story, and I want Ryu to get revenge against Lan Di and figure out what the hell was going on with that sword and are those mirrors magic or what??! However, I won't even allow myself to think Sega is planning an HD remake because these hopes have invariably led to disappointment. The series hasn't been a financial success for them. It's a hard sell. In fact, I remember grade school friends laughing at Shenmue when they saw me play it. "No space marines? No thanks." Teenaged kids are still a HUUUUGE factor in hard core video game sales, and unfortunately Call of Duty, Halo and the like have a lock on them.

I want to be wrong, but I'm not holding my breath. My guess is Sega is simply keeping their patent fresh in case they want to release another stupid mobile game or shenmue online 2 or whatever misguided BS their questionable market research department thinks can make them money.

Then again, I was motivated enough to make an account on this website specifically to weigh in, so maybe I'm more hopeful than I'm letting on.

Rock on, dudes and dudettes \m/
