Ideas for the campaign

(Chapter 7 and beyond)

Postby ToL » Tue Jun 12, 2007 12:31 pm

We should set up camps outside Sega HQ in Japan, London and San Francisco, with huge banners and signs. If that doesn';t make headlines I'll be surprised. Post meet up times on as many Shenmue and Sega forums as we can. We'll need the numbers. We can shout all day, every day, chant SHENMUE 3 over and over until they get off their arses and make it happen.
Shenmue is worth the fee it would cost to pull off a huge campaign like this but so what? We'd finally let Sega know how we feel, instead of waiting and waiting and waiting for something that may not even happen.
You can think this is a silly idea, but as far as I'm concerned, no idea is silly when you have nothing to lose and everything to gain.

I like the idea of putting links up to sites where you can buy Shenmue/Shenmue II. By the way on that petition i just typed in 2ndopps' MySpace page as my sig, things like that will get interest from new people. Also on any popular youtube vids, even if there aren't Shenmue related i'm talking about the ones that have hundreds of thousands of views, advertise in those comments. Millions of people visit youtube every day.

I like it, Would you mind if I used some other Font to write over it if we choose yours?

You wanna spend your fifteen minutes as a geek? And Shenmue defo aint worth all this effort when it comes down to it. It's good, but it aint that good.

I made a couple pictures with my limited photoshop skills :

Those pictures could help raise awareness about Shenmue if posted in Nintendo forums or Smash Bros topics on forums ("Who would you like to see in Smash Bros Brawl"...).

I just had another idea. We could create a "Tomato Convenience Store" website (big yellow banner, theme music in the background) with pages like "locations", "products", "lottery"... It would be the perfect place to put links to site that still sell shenmue games and products.

BRILLIANT! I'll totally get that done in the buy shenmue section,
well, a toned down version of that as the music in the tomato store drives me insine.

Good stuff. Surely we have to have a fan-art section, i don't know if this idea has come up but it would help with The Nine Dragons Project.
