Pledged.

Finally. Can't wait.

[Saidian]

$23,000 and counting barely a few minutes after annoucement

Yeh, I think this'll hit the target, jesus...

[Miles Prower]

Pledged.

Someone please give $10k to the man, and ask him for the Saturn version's sources during the diner event thing.

Holy cow. I've actually never played the first or second game, but I'm shocked and excited for Shenmue 3. I guess this probably won't be the ending to the series anymore...

Also, do we know if Sega is involved at all? Will Sega be the publisher?

Edit: Oh it's Sony... :/

Almost reached $500,000

I suppose you could say some won't pay up but that's still quite something, not even 30 minutes...

[sonicblur]

It might not break Pebble Time's record of $1 million in 49 minutes, but it's only been 30 and it's half way there. There's no doubt now that it's happening.

Haven't read through the page yet, will go back when the presentation is over. Not really liking the new character art style, hope they can go closer to the original. But it doesn't matter.

Sheesh, about fucking time.

So... Is SEGA not involved in any way with this? They've made sure not to imply/deny such a thing in the whole campaign page.

[doc eggfan]

They're probably waiting to see if the kickstarter is a success before they get involved. You'd imagine they must be involved in some way - Who owns the rights?

Pledged $300

Fingers crossed for a Dreamcast port stretch goal

The game page is listed only to YsNet on the copyrights, but on the other hand I'm told the SEGA logo was in a corner during the presentation (I didn't watch it) so I've no idea

This is better than anything, and I mean anything announced at E3 by leaps and bounds, HOLY- Really hope this thing gets all the social media buzz and journalism's noise it needs to see the big finale in the trilogy funded.

Also, one comment on the Kickstarter page was like, "I just barfed up $175 as if by command.", and lots of people are saying they'd up their pledge if a physical PS4 copy is on the table. You know the sheer demand for this game is real.

[Covarr]

I really want some sort of rerelease of the first two. I never owned a Dreamcast or an Xbox, and I don't wanna come into the story with no idea what's going on.

[Turbohog]

If Sega is smart, they'll re-release Shenmue 1 and 2 as part of their Dreamcast Collection re-releases...if they even do that anymore.

[Mecha Sally]

So tempting to pledge $100 to get demo access. I wonder if there's a non-disclosure agreement with it...

Amazed that this is actually happening. Wonder if the first two will get a re-release so the whole trilogy can be played.

[Aerosol]

$760k in just over an hour. We're getting Shenmue 3, it seems.

I hope it's as good as we've been hoping
