Just like the fans of Jericho who mailed peanuts to CBS, fans of the series Shenmue are going to mail off toy capsules in an attempt to show Sega how many people want the series to continue. So far, they have a staggering.. 29 people doing it.

It sounds like fun. There's several lots on ebay of hundreds of toy capsules for under $40, such as this one.

Anyone think they might give it a shot? What could be the harm?
 
Good luck to Shenmue fans, but I doubt Sega will even make another and the fans who are doing this are just throwing their money away.
 
Don't worry Sega, I got this shit covered for you, and will say what you desperately want to say.

Sega> We already made Shenmue 3. It is called Yakuza, it is way fucking better than Shenmue ever was or could ever have hoped to be, shut the fuck up and play it, for it is the damned spiritual successor. Spoiler alert: Ryo dies in the end, and we planned to have an orchestra highlight this poignant moment as he fell to the ground. Pink rose petals were floating in the air and a group of doves flew away in the background as a chorus of heavenly angels sang pity for the fallen hero, who was taken out by a rabies-infected biger, which is a bear and a tiger put together. Also, the biger died too - he ate some rotten salmon shortly thereafter. fucker. Lastly, rest assured loyal fans that Ryo will probably show up in a Virtua Fighter game at some point in the future, probably with died hair and the ability to change into a werewolf. Don't fucking think it wont happen - we weren't scared to do that to our prime mascot - don't think we can't pull that shit here too.

There. TIME TO MOVE ON.

No, I will never move on. Though I know there will never be a Shenmue 3 or any type of sequel unless I win the lottery and fund it myself. Damn now I want to go back and play Shenmue and Shenmue 2 again.

Damn straight.

Nothing against Shenmue (besides it being incredibly boring at parts), but Yakuza is a far better game than both Shenmue games combined.

I personally wouldn't care if Sega just kept Yakuza going and left Shenmue dead.

HAY

There was a game....erm....simulation....thing....in there somewhere - I fuckIN' SAW IT.
 
I don't know, I'm still rather upset by this. Sega made Shenmue II after Shenmue didn't fair so great. End the story there. Or, how much would it cost, seriously, to put together a XBLA type title to finish the story, a 2 hour game. If not this, why not release a damn story line, 10 pages of text, finishing the damn story.

You want fans for your games, the loyal ones that will buy all your crap. Yet, when it doesn't make you enough money, you want these fans to go away. Sorry, it's a 2 way street.

Something could be done, and if there is no plan to, it's just smacks of disregard for the fans of the series. It always makes it hard for me to go back and play, even though I love the games.

This post is pure bullshit. Everyone knows that this is untrue. The true ending of Shenmue ends with Lan Di telling Ryo that he must go back to his home planet of New York and on the way home from his spaceship, there was a crash and Poochie, I mean Lan Di died. Ryo got so bored that he went back to Japan and joined the Yakuza.

THAT is how Shenmue really ended.

Valkyria Chronicles disagrees with you.
 
Wasn't there a spot in Yakuza 4 where you could buy a Dreamcast II and play Shenmue III on it? I think it comes up right after the scene where you befriend the ladyboy sidekick who can fly short distances by wiggling his ass.
 
This petition isn't a bad idea - look at the dogshit titles Sega's been working on for years now, revamping and re-releasing.

I'd settle for a Shenmue I/II collection on any of the three consoles, honestly. The only reason I still have my DC is so I can play Shenmue.
 
This is so crazy, it might just work!

actually, it probably won't. I guess it would be kinda cool if it did. Shenmue 1 and 2 are the epitome of "you had to be there" games...totally overrated today.
 
Sega wont make shenmue, they will continue to make shitty as fucking games like Beast Rider, Viking, Iron Man, Incredible Hulk.

fuck you Sega. fuck YOU.
 
[quote name='mykevermin']Huh. I may buy Bayonetta. Don't know much about Madworld or Infinite Line.[/quote]

Madworld is the Black and White Action game for Wii, and Infinite Line is a SRPG in space.
