The 2014 Toy Capsule Challenge

(I searched the forums for a thread like this, but couldn't see anything similar, so apologies if it's been done recently, though Stare said it hadn't.)

The goal of the Toy Capsule Challenge is to collect ALL toy capsules across both games (best with save import, naturally), WITHOUT cheating. As you all know, this is not easy, and might just take you the entire year.

Want in? The you're in. Already done it? Then congrats! Want to cheat and pretend you did it fairly? Then that's on you. We're on an honour system, and if you're lacking in the honour department then that's a shame, but we'll have fun doing it the right way (well, some of us).

What's the point? One might as well ask "why do river's flow?" (Don't say "ocean," smartass). Want a more tangible reason? Well, complete your quest, post up a blurry screenshot of your collection (optional), and then be added to the...

Me too. That's the first thing that came to my mind.

This challenge is a very nice idea, gives us something to go for. I think I won't be participating however.
Collecting toy capsule across all the machines is just too much for me. Just too tedious and lenghty. :lol:

Upperdave, I'll donate some Ryo Hazuki DLC codes for sonic racing, to the two individuals that come in first and second place.

Haha! "Upper Dave". You bellend. Pretty decent idea, but I'll probably wait for a fight challenge before I get involved. Could even use Reiner's Lan Di mod. No prize though... what's all that about?

Very cool. Thanks!

Will we determine first and second place by the number of capsules found, or by the first one to complete it?

Why no prize? Because I wasn't about to buy something for every person who completes their collection, and I suspected some people have already completed their collections, so offering a prize for first to finish would be a little unfair.

You don't have to buy something. Just send us bits of shit you find lying about your house that you have no use for. Like an old cassette player, or an empty lighter.

Yes. But I think there's another capsule toy with After Burner that I missed. I don't remember wich one is :-k

In Shenmue 1 there's a lot of capsule toys I don't have.

And I have all attacks maxed in both games except swallow flip in Shenmue and Demon's triangle / predictive explosion and some throw moves in Shenmue II.
But no problem, I have a tactic to upgrade throw moves in Shenmue 2: losing to Baihu 284752358723945729 times.

I hear and see a lot of funny comebacks, but it's very rare you witness a legitimately unbeatable comeback. Hats off n thrown into the air like a student wanker.
