So, 'just' a remaster.

This remaster is the one we deserve...


Shenmue I and II in HD this year. Followed by Shenmue III early next year.

You see this is how it's done. The night before E3 all things are possible, HL3, TLG, Shenmue 3 on DREAMCAST 2 (a double unveiling!!!!!!!), RARE making real games again...

All are possible all are real....the night before E3.

E3 eve...where dreams live. See you on the other side, dreamers.

You sum it up pretty much perfectly. I guess hype is whats its all about now in the game industry
 
Probably gonna be a HD remaster of 1+2 to see if theres enough sales to warrant a 3rd or maybe just another troll move, the japanese seem to be master trolls
 
This is like the new Sonic Cycle:

Big names and devs meet Yu Suzuki --> Big Gaming Event draws near -->
Yu Suzuki announce attendance --> Fans around the world scream possible Shenmue 3 announcement -->
Something Shenmue related gets teased online --> Fans goes nuts and brace in anticipation -->
Nothing is shown at the event --> Everyone disappointed --->
Repeat..

I do this for Shenmue and used to do it for the Amiga.
 
Nice title change. I'll be happy with just the 1&2 HD remaster since I've never played them before.

I'll still be sad if nothing happens though, I have a lot of love for this series considering I've never played any of them. The music is incredible and I've listened to it for years.
 
It won`t be Shenmue 3, it`ll be a HD remake of the original. Which I would go absolutely ape-shit over. I think I`d pop down to Dobuita Street to celebrate :D
 
To those who believe, no explanation is necessary... To those who do not believe, no explanation will do.

I choose to believe.

Eventually, I'll either be right or I'll be dead. If I'm dead, it won't matter. In the meantime, even if it's five million to one odds... 'So, you are telling me there is a chance!'
 
Never played Shenmue, but since I liked a lot Yakuza and Sleeping Dogs, I can't see myself disappointed with this one!

So, whatever platform it gets... I'm hoping for a release!
 
I can feel the crowd screams already, everybody going fucking crazy ... and then you see the words...


Its a remake of the other 2... andd you realize they done fuck it up square enix style !!!
 
Shenmue 3 will be a phone game where all you do is drive a forklift and move around boxes.

Your forklift will have a set amount of fuel, and once you run out you will have to purchase more through in app purchases.

Pretty sure the fans would like it..

Hell, even me would want that before a proper Shenmue 3.

There's a ton of people who haven't played the first two. Why would they release a third one before reintroducing the series?

Yeah, the remasters are something even die hard fans are asking for heh.

A third game with 1 and 2 would be the best case scenario, but then again, I'm not holding my breath for any miracles.
 
I wonder how much of this Shen Mue love is Nostalgia goggles?
I played it on Xbox and remember loving it, but nothing Yakuza hasnt' scratched these past years? How different is it?
 
guys just remember what happened befo- ok everybodys gone bananas

The hell, I played Fahrenheit and don't remember this scene.
 
Sega is already sitting on the remaster edition (1 or both, not sure) since quite a long time I've heard. Why are they waiting though.... for a bundled release with Shenmue III?

I can see it working more like an endless runner myself, Sonic Dash-style.
 
Rumors of a third Shenmue?! I thought it was just a mention or part of Sony's "Building the List" thing with a PS4/PS3 HD Remaster of the first and second game....and now their are reports of the Heavy Rain studio making the third Shenmue?

.....I highly, highly doubt that would happen honestly :l. I mean, Sega is cool with sharing their licences to IP for good deals/causes (the Bayonetta 2 situation for example) and they aren't strangers to making HD remasters of Saturn/Dreamcast games (they did this for both Adventure games, Jet Set Radio, Nights, Space Channel 5 Part 2, Sega Bass Fishing and Crazy Taxi). So, a HD remaster of the Shenmue 1 and 2 is very likely, considering all the hints the creator of the series has been sharing (why post a picture of a forklift if you aren't showing something with Shenmue?)

If, and this is a big one, Sony were to fund a third entry in the series....I think they would put Sony Bend, Ready at Dawn or Studio Japan on the project. Thinking about it....Studio Japan has been quiet with their output on home consoles (they just finished their Vita projects with Orishika and Freedom Wars, alongside finishing in assisting From Software with Bloodborn), then there are the teams from Puppeteer and Knack putting out nothing since 2013.....I could see both of those teams helping Sega out in making a Shenmue game honestly :).

It is a huge IP, and it would give Sony a lot of good will from gamers, so I could realistic see them announcing a new game in the series :D. I just want to keep my expectations grounded, as this IS the same company that still has TLG not out yet after a very long developmental hell :l.
 
Ryo for Virtua Fighter 6???

Kind of pointless since his moveset is almost dentical to Akira's. Also nugget of gaming history Shenmue was originally conceptualised as a Virtua Fighter RPG, most of Shenmue's bosses have movesets lifted right out of Virtua Fighter as well.
 
This is the worst, and I swear if Suzuki is playing with our hearts again I'm just going to stop paying attention to anything he says because my heart just can't take it anymore. My prediction would be that we'll get a Shenmue HD release during Sony's conference. I don't think we'll see Shenmue 3 just yet, but if I recall correctly, Sony has said previously that Shenmue is one of the most requested games they get.

Apparently according with someone on gaf who met with Gio Corsi at psx, they where holding back due to how poorly some of those dreamcast collections sold on PS3/360 and also because of licensing issues with the engine both shenmue 1 and 2 include. Apparently parts of the engine were made by some company that went down the drain a while back and they don't know who owns the engine.


In other words they don't want to get sued after releasing the hd collection. There is red tape in the way. Hopefully, someone helped sega get through that red tape..
 
I just picture Yu sitting on the bed in his hotel room, pushing down the last remnants of a dry room service sandwich, thinking about the day he just had, wherein he tweeted a pic of a forklift as a wink and a nod to long time Shenmue fans, blissfully unaware that his innocent little gesture caused the Internet to explode.

I skimmed the first six pages and didn't find a translation of the tweet.

What does the tweet actually say?

"Wanna see a bunch of adults cry?"
