If Shenmue I and II HD do get announced I hope they drop the Cinema Shorts stretch goal and put that towards Shenmue III development.

Who's the game Dev Yu refers to as finding success on kickstarter and was a Shenmue fan- Tim Schafer?

Ryan Paton who made République, they had him in a couple of the Kickstarter videos, and he did an interview with Suzuki-san and David Cage a few years back:

Start saving money.
Monaco is...outrageously...expensive.

Even the flights are expensive... £300! You can get a return from London to Tokyo for just £70 more on certain dates...

@Peter. I've been once in Monaco. Was coming from Italy travelling to Nice.
My advise would be to book a flight to Nice (maybe they are EasyJet flights from where you live) and then take the train from Nice to Monaco. It's a 30 minutes ride.

You could spare a good amount of money.

A heads up: the gaming website called DualShockers is going to interview Yu Suzuki on Monday and wants your questions.

God damn it I swear, if you don't document everything you do, and bookmark every page you ever visit on the net, there's always people like you, with the BS take of, SS/video or it didn't happen.


Hey this is no BS mate. This is a major find (if proven) as we all would be seeing a totally brand new scene from a decade and half old game, not mentioning the possibility of playing the game in a different way, skipping the alone training time altogether to master all moves. So requesting a documented proof is not unreasonable I believe.

After all, if I started telling everyone that I know a way Ryo could fight Lan Di inside the Dojo just before the bad ending kicks in, without providing even a single screenshot, would you just take it at face value?

PS edited.

I got a lot of support on my way to Monaco through reactions on this Twitter Image:

It's not easy to have a trip from the Netherlands to Monaco by plane with a young family at 3:30AM on Friday 26th.

My most valuable moment of MAGIC was during the signing session; My eldest daughter was showing the Ryo Statue to Yu Suzuki (before she had a bad feeling about drawing with a permanent marker on her statue :P )
Yu pushed his Golden iPhone 6Plus to our side of the table and asked to make picture with him and the kids.

The interpreter took some pictures; 1,5hours later we discovered this tweet from Yu himself:

Thankful for the support I got from my beloved wife :heart:
