I mean, Cedric is mostly in the dark about a project he's co-producing so I wouldn't expect him to know a thing about Shenmue HD either way.

It's interesting he's only suddenly started to ask for it. Not that reading tea leaves has ever gotten us anywhere.

If indeed they're trying to conceal who registered them retroactively after this news going public... part of me says, "Oh! That means they're working on it and are trying to conceal it!" But the other half of me says, "Damn. They're trying to keep us from getting our hopes up and then blaming them for it, because they know it's not happening." Lol.

I'm not one who is apt to add fuel to this smoldering fire, but more here(taken from GAF thread and subsequent website):

"Update: According to various individuals who work in retail abroad—whose employment we verified—the game should come out in April. The remasters are titled Shenmue 1 & 2 Pack right now in their systems but that might change as we get closer to an announcement. Keep in mind that these individuals might have forged their information so take this with a grain of salt until Sega offers an official press release or statement."


I used to work at GameStop, who is notorious for putting unannounced SKUs up for reserve early. I'll reach out to a couple of my former bosses and find out if they are the retailer mentioned.

It's so weird to think that even now in 2017 the only legit way to play Shenmue I is on Dreamcast!

I think Shenmue 1 is the only DC game that has remained exclusive after all these years.

Indeed. And the more I think about it... considering that even Skies of Arcadia got a Gamecube port of all things (and I loved it, don't get me wrong! Please remaster it too, Sega! PLEASE! lol) and they had the perfect opportunity to bring Shenmue 1 to Xbox with Shenmue 2, it really mystifies and slightly irks me lol.

But... we are nothing if not patient, and I probably just haven't had my coffee yet and will calm down once the sweet necter that is caffeine courses through my veins lmao. :p

sega made a lot of weird decisions concerning shenmue. If they do release HD remasters i hope they will translate them for europe this time, all of my friends in France that are fans of the series couldn't even understand it when it was released here.

if you mean among "well-known" "more popular" DC games, than probably yes, otherwise there are Dreamcast games that still has never been released elsewhere and remains exclusive.

Knowing Sega, it'll be Xbone and Switch only.

True. But their penchant for fucking things up overrides all.
