I re-checked and apparently there were originally going to be 16 chapters, but the number was reduced to 11. hm.

I remember back in the day that Ryo's adventure would include a city/village from every major continent/sub-continent across the globe. So if that still holds we've got a fair bit to go.

I just upped my pledge to the $60 physical PS4 tier, so glad that I get to have a box, plus every little helps at this point.

I started a second kickstarter account in order to get both the PC and PS4 physical copies.

I just realised, if this is published by Sony, then it technically doesn't belong on Sega Retro

It's not published by them. They've done this sort of funding before with other independently developed games that are self-published. It's also not being published by SEGA anyway, but they do still own the license.

Bayonetta 2 was published by Nintendo. It's a SEGA IP so it has a page. So will Shenmue 3.

The damage is so minor /> Couldnt even capture it in a photo. I'll take it to a local game shop at the weekend if it doesnt work after that, guess ill try the toothpaste method.

Don't do that unless you are positive on what you are doing. Try it on lots of blank CDs first and see how it goes.

I've tried that on many discs and just damaged them more.

I ordered a converter so I could capture Dreamcast footage via component, and it arrived today.

Of course, it doesn't work.

I got my refund, ordered a different converter, and it arrived today.

IT WORKS!

So, I'm streaming Shenmue and Shenmue II at http://www.twitch.tv/digitalduck

I'll be taking it slow, showing all the scenes most people miss, and I'll keep playing until I get tired and then continue tomorrow (and so forth).


EDIT: Finished for tonight - we failed to learn a move we already knew, forgot how to use directory enquiries, obliged a cold homeless guy who wanted coffee by buying him a nice cold can of grape juice, got beaten up by a couple of schoolgirls, misunderstood the meaning of "stealth", and got lost in a warehouse. :mrgreen:

A usual day in the life of Ryo Hazuki.

This is all I've ever wanted. I can finally die.

Finally completed both Shenmue and Shenmue II the long way after a total of 72 hours streaming.

Personal highlights for me (having seen most of what I showed on stream) were this:



And this:

16 hours to go, Shenmue III is sitting at $5.49 million.

This'll be the last time I get to check it, but hopefully it'll reach at least six.

I'm really believing this is going to beat Bloodstained as the most funded video game KickStarter. It feels right. No offense to Bloodstained, but all of this has been incredibly fulfilling to watch unfold.

I think more than anything I'm just happy to see Yu back in the saddle working on something big.

I hope we get a good game out of this. He said he needed $10mil to fulfill his vision, and he's getting just over half that.

Eh I don't know. We have a game that realistically needs 1-2 MD to be made and a game that realistically needs 10-20 MD to be made. One is overfunded, the other one - underfunded.

Sure, sure. I'm talking solely about the KickStarter totals though.
