$175 for me - but I might invest more before the deadline. I just wasn't sure if the following tiers were worth it to me. Part of me wants to get the $500 tier so I can get all the capsule toys, haha.

I'm still thinking a bit but it will most likely be one of the options from 100 to 175 USD. What I would prefer is an option for a PS4 physical copy since I intend to buy that console down the line.

I did the $510. Literally all the money I have, but needed to be done. As a bit of a Shenmue collector, I couldn't miss out on the bonus bits of merch.

It's interesting to see where the majority of the money is going in the tiers though, surprised that almost the same amount of people that are paying $60 for a boxed version are paying another $40 for the credits and beta / demo download and then besides obviously just the $29 digital tier, the next highest amount of the backers are going all the way up to $300!

All my month's salary $510, but it deserves it. I only hope to be alive when the game comes out. :lol:

I don't blame Riku at all. It seems every other month you read about some game or project getting canceled for some shit reason and people are out 100's of thousands of dollars in donations. If it wasn't for RPG's on DC and this, then I would have never backed anything either, besides friends campaigns.

$310 from me, we'll see if I want to go up.

FWIW, I have a Ryo forklift figure I won years ago in that Sega contest, wonder if it's worth anything these days lol

My central air went out and I have to replace my brakes on my car. These two things are non-negotiable.
I don't make much income at all.
I could only do $30.

If you're blinding investing THAT MUCH money on some nobody's Kickstarter without any hopes of seeing that return, you kind of deserve it.

The most I gave was $1000 for a part in the Angry Videogame Nerd movie, but it was worth it. Not only did it get made, I got to meet James Rolfe and get a legit IMDB credit. Not only that, but get back in touch with him in the future personally for a particular thing I want to work with him and his buds on.

But for nobodies? $10 tops. But with these crowdfunding projects, I only give to people who have proven track records (Double Fine, Interplay, ect) or have a near-finished product already (100 Yen: The Japanese Arcade Experience, WYRMWOOD, Exogen Bio, ect). Anything more to anything less is borderline retarded, i'm sorry.

I understand the hesitancy towards kickstarter, but to me, Shenmue is certainly worth any risk. No way am I missing out on this because I was scared of losing some money.
