76,000 more dollars and French subtitles will be included! Exciting to see a stretch goal being reached like literally every 90 minutes or so...

Lol i just went for a smoke break, refreshed the page and the number of "Yu Suzuki signed" Shenmue 3 editions on the kickstarter pages went from 1561 to 1601. Yu's hand will hurt sooooo badly after he's done signing all of these... ! *g*

My brother attempted to call me at work to tell me about this, but I missed his call! I couldn't believe this was real! Shenmue III will finally be a real thing!!!

Backed the project of course, now the long wait begins.

I really hope that the PS4 is getting a box and disc version and that it wont be digital only.
I want to have a phsyical copy of the game i can put among my other games and look at and also with a disc version you can put it into your console and play it for the rest of your life but with digital games it feels like they will be gone one day and you wont be able to play it anymore just like with the Silent Hills P.T demo.

Took me a while to remember my log in details. I think the last time I logged in here was probably around 2009...

I honestly gave up hope of ever playing Shenmue 3. I figured, if anything Shenmue ever happened, it would first be something like a remake of 1 & 2, and it wouldn't be the Shenmue I grew up with and loved.

This is the best thing that could have happened, a direct sequel to Shenmue 2!

It's a literally dream come true, I don't know how many times I've watched the Shenmue Online "fake shenmue 3" trailer and thought to myself "Maybe one day....."

This one if anyone remembers it!

I hope they go for that type of look for the characters and game world for Shenmue 3. No doubt the look in the Kickstarter video is super early stuff.

I woke up and went on Facebook and saw someone post a link to the Shenmue 3 kickstarter. I didn't even know what to think I just watched the video and it took a while to sink in and for me to realise it's actually happening.

After all these years! I still have my Xbox Shenmue 2 copy, but sold my Xbox console :( Shenmue 2 on dreamcast price has exploded now haha

Long live shenmue!

I think they dont wanna make physical copy because to make one they have to pay taxes. But on PC you can sell anything.

Even though everything is going great, everyone needs to realize that 2 Million and even 4 Million is not the end of the road. If you watch the video (and look at the stretch goals) you will see that there are 3 places Yu wants to go with the game, the first is 4 Million and the others are currently unannounced.

We need to make sure that we all keep an eye on the Kickstarter and more specifically the stretch goals as more will be added over time :D!

Shenmue 2X works on 360 n'all if you have that. There's also a small chance (very, very small depending on how they're actually handling the BC update) that it'll work on Xbox One as well.

I am hoping, that would be nice.

Quick, someone give me five hundred dollars, so I can give Yu Suzuki five hundred dollars. :shock:

Just managed to get my first proper look at the kickstarter page - I have a tear in my eye. Now just need to convince my other half that it will be a good idea to pledge some money.
