The key is to do not hope for something particular, but to hope generally. That is do not say "I hope that Shenmue ... on E3", "I hope that Shenmue ... on Tokyo Game Show", "I hope that Shenmue ... on GDC", but hope for the unexpected (but ALWAYS from a Trusted and Real source). I think that it will reduce the disappointment. At least, that is how I face it, I think.
