Nah, they never said that. But that usually how it works for capsule toys.

This is fucking awesome. Anything now is just a bonus. We did it! So happy to be the most funded. Well deserved after all these years.
Got to have my moment of fame: upping to $100 for them creds!

The troll toll!
Record for highest funded video game Kickstarter. $5.54m is what we needed to beat and we did it twice! =P
Did I? Oops thought the amount was up to $5.45m when I posted. =/
Doesn't matter now though because we did it!!! Love this this community.

I went to sleep when we beat Reading Rainbow and now we're ahead of Bloodstained. Let's hope the rest of the day is this great.
Very gratifying for long-term Shenmue fans to see it reach this level.
More articles flooding in. This is exactly what I was hoping for. I'm calling $6M:

I look forward to the time when you can sleep again.
Thanks guys, I thought there's 1 more higher after Bloodstained.
I'm glad to be a part of this historic gaming moment.
me too : /
Yup. 10% deposit on pledges larger than $500 seems reasonable enough.
Sure, some trolls will spend $100 on $1000 pledges, but I think on the most part it would stop the ridiculous $10,000 fake pledges.

Would also stop some people from pledging. I know a guy who pledged $10,000 for real after making sure it wouldn't charge for a while, as he had to figure out how to get the money. He wouldn't have pledged at all if they took money immediately.

I'd love to see Yu Suzuki get to grips with the 'advanced free battle' at the $6m stretch goal. Dude is a genius.
Fucking awesome!!! Got to make a fans celebration thread when the kickstarter ends! I got to something special. This shenmue kickstarter is an insane rejoice and testiment of the shenmue community for we were the ones that made this all possible!! Just us! Not Sony, not awesome japan, we did it.
Now. Please make it to 6 million. Destroy my 5.6 million original forecast that i made at the start of the campaign.

Don't worry, guys. I captured the magical moment.
Is this real? Or did you photoshop it?
Extreme minority of cases. I imagine most people pledging on $500+ tiers know they can afford those obscene amounts responsibly, either because they have a lot of money or know they can get it in time.
Plus, I said a 10% deposit, not the full amount. Quite frankly, if you can't even fork up a 10% deposit on $10k to be paid in full in ~30 days then you probably shouldn't be pledging that amount of money in the first place.

Hell yes! We did it! Now on to the advanced battle system!
It's an hour since I last posted so here's an update!
Ever since the Bloodstained record was broken, we have been gaining momentum. We gained $35k in the last hour, and we only have $446k to go according to the table (not according to the latest update). So if we continue to earn $35k/hr for the next 13 hours, we'll go pass $6m.
Hopefully, the pace quickens so we can go beyond that.

It's real! I had about a three-second window to hit printscreen!

I mean the working day has barely started in America and parts of it are still asleep so we're going to sail past $6m IMO.
Don't worry, guys. I captured the magical moment.
You'll win any Lucky Hit from now on, comrade.

I'm glad someone captured this. And of course the Japanese for number 5 is GO.

It will. Bear in mind it's still early in the US, and there's always a final day bump anyway.
