Oh god. This was such a good call to go. I haven't even really been able to check out the site or anything. Been far too busy organising all sorts of stuff, as well as the press confrence yesterday.

These screens really are gorgeous :) Still trying to process that the game actually exists, brings a tear to the eye to see Ryo continue his journey in Guilin after all this time...

JapanFM seemed to talk about a video presentation for February, not the slideshow of yesterday. But couldn't find confirmation neither. I only heard the confirmation of an exclusive presentation of Shenmue III by Yu Suzuki during the event from one source.

According their Facebook teasing, there is also a possibility that Shibuya will make a surprise announcement following Astroboy Reboot in 2014 and Shenmue III in 2015.

I hope they manage to pack up a good looking teaser to get people hyped within a couple months.

Thank you Yokosuka. A new trailer for Magic Monaco doesn't look that impossible to me.
I'm surprised by the poor news following the press conference. It's like beside the Shenmue 3 new screenshots, no info have been published on gaming websites.

Possible Shibuya suprise annoucement? Shenmue Remaster!!! [-o<
Or more likely... Dragon Ball Reboot? ;-)

I think GameSpot came out with a positive article about the screenshots. The comments are a bit of a shit show though. Not completely, but a bit.

I was so used to trashing articles that I decided not to read any of them (dualshockers excepted) but I'm going to read it, minus the full of trolls comments section.

My surprise about the lack of deep news (especially from french websites) is more about the Magic Monaco event.
After all, that's what the conference was about and I was expecting at least an official Press Release from the Magic Monaco "committee".

I don't think it looks great, but I'd be shocked if the final game looks much like these screens. I'm guessing they're still using lots of stock textures, models, etc.

Shenmue Master released a conference video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KNEfWPzuHrI

- The Shenmue III & Suzuki parts lasted only some minutes and no question about the game have been asked by the journalists.

- From 10:42 (about Suzuki as guest)
"We will be fortunate to get pictures and video of Shenmue III as worldwide exclusivity during the event. He will held a conference and a signing session."

- From 41:41 (screenshots release)
"As I said you before, there will normally be a teaser in MAGIC. For sure, a lot of new things will be shown. Today we wanted to expose you a mini-preview with 3 pictures. It's not a big deal but I only want to demonstrate that the development is progressing. It's WIP, we're at a very early stage of the production so obviously shenmue III is not going to look like that in the final version but considering what I've said, it's not bad at all."

"That aren't pictures specifically made for the conference, I only ask Yu to send me screenshots and he did so with no problem. It's a little taste of what we can show for MAGIC and I think we'll get a pretty exceptional conference for all gaming lovers."

Other infos not related with Shenmue :
- Cédric is pride that a lot of foreigners among the visitors are coming as it's still a little event. About 50 American people are expected because of Shenmue III and Romita according him.

- Simultaneous interpreting for all conferences

- Japanese embassy of France is the partner of MAGIC (memo : The place where the press conference has been held is mainly funded by the Japanese government).

- Magic is free (entrance, photos with guests, signing etc.) and there will be no shop. The places are limited to keep the event very friendly.

- Make the event free has been possible thanks the sponsors. Cédric was grateful to his sponsors during the conference.

- Amano highly praised Magic 2015 (Straight after, Cédrid joked "I didn't gave him money" )

- Q : Why will Magic only last one day ?
Cédric : The first reason is economic. The rent becomes very expensive over several days because we can't fill the loss of earnings with paying visitors and paying exhibitors (as the MAGIC is free). So we prefered to do a very exceptional day rather than an event divided into days. As we have not the need to fill a big warehouse like classic events, the idea is really to do our very own and intimate event (the registrations to the event are limited, you need to subscribe before). To make myself clear, the first MAGIC in 2015 should only have been a gala dinner for the opening of Sibuya Prod at Monaco as a promotional event. As we have a lot of star friends in these sectors (animation, manga, gaming), the dinner get bigger and bigger. Then the idea to share these moments with the public came out and the MAGIC became what it is now. [...]

This is exactly the kind of direct information we needed, thank you Yokosuka! :)

The event planning is still yet to be decided. Atm, they need to know about how many visitors are sure to come in order to choose the best location in the Grimaldi Forum. Perhaps the information is going to be provided for February 2th, the second press conference before the show.

Not sure, but I think performers are "Yaneka / B-Sky"
