Possible tease from the voice of Ryo Hazuki (Shenmue)
- Thread starter DJIzana
- Start date
I actually wouldn't mind Shenmue III on Wii U, since I actually have one. A few months ago I'd have preferred a next-gen version, but with the way that's going I expect I won't have a PS4 or Xbone, so eh.
All I really want from the franchise at this point is a HD port of Shenmue I & II on PC. Two of my favourite games ever, and they're locked to consoles. I want to be able to play them forever.

This is what I am thinking

I can only imagine the happiness that would emit out of my heart with thunderous vigor, and the cash flying out of my wallet into Nintendo's face.
Yes, because buying a WiiU is cheaper than buying a PS4/XBone. Shenmue III doesn't need to be on next-generation, Yakuza engine is sufficient, they can even use the same engine of Shenmue I and II.
Well, Wii U is the new Dreamcast isn't it?
I know it won't probably happen but watching the meltdown would have been hilarious.
I don't know if I'd go that far but I would definitely consider it.
If that were happening they probably would have mentioned it during the last Direct when they announced their partnership with Sega.

According to neogaf user Verendus, Sega is prepping two titles for PS4 (I think he said they were exclusive). Apparently Sony let the new Sonic go for a new project...

Everyone knows how I feel about the Wii U, but if Shenmue III was announced as an exclusive for it I'd buy one in a heart beat.
I'd just be happy it’s alive....and I'm sure any other Shenmue fan will agree with me. I'd buy it on anything damn it! ANYTHING!

If it's the only way I'm going to see the end of the story, I'll take it at this point.

Shenmue 3 wii u
Haha, that would be the E3 to end all E3s!

That's actually true, in more ways than one.

hehe, he didn't say anything about Shenmue III though. He either said one was a new project, I don't remember what he said about the second game.
one of them for the love of god better be valkyria chronicles 4.
Wii U is the only thing that makes sense - because why other would they release Yakuza 1 and 2 (which practically encourages you to buy a PS3 because they will never be able to port Yakuza 4 and 5 to Wii U)
Yakuza is like a mafia version of Shenmue, I don't know why more people do not realize this

Shenmue 3 is an astonishingly easy game to make happen; Sony, MS or Nintendo simply have to apply a large amount of money to Sega.
It'd certainly create a buzz, problem is whether anyone thinks it'd make a profit

Vita wouldn't surprise me.
It could be that big Vita game people were talking about. It's a niche title but a certain amount of the core audience would go ape-shit for it. Mainline Yakuza games on PS3/PS4.. Shenmue on the Vita. I think that makes the most sense (although I'd love to see Nintendo funding it for Wii U). Of course it could be crossplay for the Vita, PS3 and PS4.

This is my stance as well. The console that has Shenmue is bought by me in an instant.

Shenmue HD Collection and Shenmue 3 for Vita would be amazing.

So does anyone actually expect Shenmue III to show up at E3 this year?
Amen. Any system, any price. It needs to end. It just...needs to end.

I will pray to jesus tonight for this to happen.
Yeah I remember
. If true, Sony's movement is weird, Im sure Sonic would sell more than any of these franchises.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
I will honestly buy a Wii U the day after Shenmue 3 is announced for it.
However, it probably has to do with a port of the Dreamcast game to PC/XBLA/PSN.

I would be quite disappointed if they'd even fail to announce two half-decent HD remasters of the first two games this year with all the previous news about pending PSN and XBL releases. Maybe they figured they could put in some more effort rather than doing a crappy port?
(Here's hoping the data from those games will carry over to the eventual part 3 and up.)
If they have a bleeding edge next-gen Shenmue III right at the time of either the PS4 or Xbox One presentations, I would not need to hear any other game related news this year.
But like always, prepare to be disappointed and then some more...
