Who else thinks Nintendo might help fund Shenmue 3?

I played Shenmue 2 on Xbox. Dreamcast dissapeared before I had purchasing power and PS2 backwards compatibility was a huge selling point. Shenmue, at least Shenmue 2, is a masterpiece. Though frustrating at times was groundbreaking. The terrible acting and translation quirks made the game amazing. I'll never look at a toy dispensing machine the same way again.

Before the PS3 everyone was nice to me :(

I never got to play Shenmue on the DC for more than 30min on a friends house
2 yers ago i decided to try S2 on the DC emu, and it was pretty good, REALLY good, like a realistic RPG with Virtua Fighter fighting mechanics

Sorry, but you dont know what you're talking about.

Shenmue is a sandbox world where you live in. Its a representation of an era that now doesnt exist anymore. It is amazing.

Its a shame you cant just steal cars and make everything explode with guns and all that. I'm sure that would fit your quota of "lots of fun", but some people know how to enjoy other kinds of experiences aswell.

Why do you assume he would prefer steal cars and make things explode? You realize there are more selections than GTA and Shenmue.

Also:

dumbfoundedpast participle, past tense of dumb·found

Verb:

Greatly astonish or amaze: "they were dumbfounded at his popularity".

Ah you're the guy that keeps getting banned.

I dont care about your grammar police, its not my first language and its pretty good considering.

Why do i conclude he prefers to steal cars and explode things? It is quite obvious, i am impressed you didnt realise that.

He obviously wants instant gratification, and not a living breathing world of characters to discover. Blowing/Shooting things is whats fun for this kind of people isnt it? What kind of game do you think he likes given he says Shenmue is boring? Exploration, discovery, experiencing a virtual breathing and living world certainly isnt it by his own words. Why dont you enlighten us with your wisdom?

I don't think so. If they do. I would tattoo Nintendo on my arm. Shenmue is one of my favourite games.

maybe nintendo will also finance Agent and all the other vaporeware out there, B_e_l_i_e_v_e

Bet reminder: I bet with Tboned51 that Splatoon won't reach the 1 million shipped mark by the end of 2015. I win if he loses and I lose if I lost.

Quick time events? A city full of nothing to do? Every object is manuseable but do absolutely nothing? Shenmue sucks. Let it rot in its coffin of unfulfilled promis.

There are much better games that Nintendo can fund.

What a dumbfounded comment. Shenmue was the first game that let you do that. It was released in a time before the PS2 sandboxes even started.

Of course the formula would have to be improved. Look at the Yakuza games. More in that style.The story and characters are incredible aswell as the setting, so have a bit of respect and sense that people actually enjoy this series and it was quite good for its time.

I'd take a new shenmue over a GTA anytime of the week. That series has been stale since GTA3. Its always the same game in a different setting.

Sleeping dogs for example, is the example of a game that tries to move things forward. And its one i recommend to shenmue fans in the meanwhile.

The only thing Shenmue pioneered was in the nothing-to-do-ness department. Shenmue is boring as hell, sleep inducing, slooooooow and uninteresting. Let's not even get into its ''fighting system''. Spend that money in something better. Let that crap stay in the past.

Sorry, but you dont know what you're talking about.

There has to be some kind of flaw in your criteria if Shenmue is no longer made, sold relatively poorly and the competitor you lament is one of the best selling franchises ever.

What sells the most is not necessarely the best for everyone.

You can buy millions of GTA Vice city/ San andreas/4/5 and i wont buy them. I bought GTA3, it was pretty good, but the formula quickly got repetitive. The games that followed it were all doing the same exact thing.

Sleeping Dogs for example, tried something different and i am buying that. Shenmue is not boring. I can understand people not liking that kind of game, but to call it boring is dumb and really isnt the case at all. There really is nothing else like it (maybe Yakuza to a certain extent) and that is why people long for a sequal.

Super mario Galaxy has no guns, and is not driven by QTEs, nor is it boring in any way shape or form, not in action, not in environments, not in story to gameplay ratio.
