Does anyone know where is it?

Ah too bad, just saw your message now, after the announcement. (I had a link to the live feed in my blog post).

As to the results:
- Ryo Hazuki ranked in at #3 for the top 10 most memorable characters!
- Unfortunately Shenmue didn't make the top 10 most memorable products/franchises - ranking in at #11.
- But Shenmue did rank in at #4 as the franchise people most want to see revived.

They noted that there was a lot of participation from overseas.

Shenmue also ranked in at #4 in some other poll. Lost the third place rank by 2 votes.

Yup, that is for the franchise people most want to see revived (edited into my post above). A good result!

Well guys, Shenmue is already being revived, so what was the point for voting it?

Sakura Wars at #1 was exactly what i expected from japanese fans :mrgreen:

Come on, we already know that they're trying to make that happen right now :D

I don't know, it doesn't seem nice to me to try to steal other dead(er) series potential spotlight :| Shnemue 3 is already happening, internet mass mobilization it's not required anymore.

As much as I'd love that to be true, nothing can be taken for granted until we see Shenmue 1 & 2 HD announced. We have momentum, so let's use it while we can. If we get complacent now, just because some things have gone our way, then we may regret it later when we're back to square one with Shenmue 4.

Ryo Hazuki (the one from Sega All Stars racing) was a defined choice and rated #3.

Imagine if Shenmue was actually a selectable choice instead of a fill in choice.

What if people filled in Shenmue 1 and Shenmue 2 as separate choices and they didn't bother to combine the games.

SEGA.. when it comes to Shenmue.. #-o

:lmfao: What did they say? I can immagine it.

"Hey, there's loads of votes from overseas! Is it those dorks from Shenmue Dojo again?"
"Yeah, they made a thread on their forum, telling people what colums to click on the poll."

:lol:

Sakura Wars and Segata Sanshiro take top place. Plus, the Saturn is the only Sega console specifically ranked in the top ten 'most memorable creation' category. It just goes to show that the Saturn still has an incredibly strong presence in Japan to this day.

In fact, for the two polls that had predefined options, Jet Set Radio was the only other write-in vote to chart at all. And Shenmue performed better in the third poll, where all votes were write-in, than in the first, where suggested options were listed.

Yes, this definitely will have skewed the results - it's so much easier just to click on a radio button. They admitted as much during the results announcement video, but put it down to having arranged the poll in a short space of time.

Here's my blog post on the announcements video, adding in rankings outside the Top 10 as well.
