Thanks for that alimn, and thanks for all your hard work.
I think the #saveshenmue needs to be directed aggressively towards Sony (shu, and gio corsi). Sony have said straight up, the games that are requested the most on #buildingthelist are the ones they will focus on. While Shenmue is up there, it has a ton of potential to destroy that list completely, and dominate it, much like the recent facebook poll for the playstation magazine.
When I view the #saveshenmue page, hardly any tweets are directed at shu and giocori. Hardly, any of them include #buildingthelist. Messages usually mention something about Shenmue, followed by the save shenmue hashtag. At the very most, it will include SEGA's twitter name.
Microsoft have stated they have no interest in the ip. Nintendo have no interest in their own ips, let alone Shenmue. I think the campaign needs to go after Sony. Every tweet needs to include @yosp and @giocorsi, along with the #saveshenmue, #buildingthelist. This may reduce the message length, but it will put Shenmue on Sony's radar to a much greater extent. #buildingthelist has shenmue requests on there, but not enough. Considering how active #saveshenmue is, if all of those tweets are directed to #buildingthelist then sony will have no choice but to act. (one would hope anyway)
This is all my opinion however. What do you guys think?
