I think Shenmue is to Japanese for the western XBOX. Shenmue would do so much better on Wii or PS3

You do know that Shenmue 2 was released on the Xbox right?


Yes, and how did that work out?

Seemed to do alright. What is it, 330k or so for a port? I don't think it's sales look that bad.

Dreamcast didn't sell too well (unfortunately)

Origional xbox didn't sell too well.

360 now has 30 million + owners (silver and gold accounts can buy xbla games)

XBLA is proving to be incredibly popular (top games regularly selling hundreads of thousands).

Shenmue cost Sega a lot of money, why for the love of god do they not try to recoup some of that money?

Hell, make it on psp too if you have to.

Release this game for a new generation Sega.

So many people missed out on this magical game.

Psp? Blasphemy! The psp would suddenly combust and go up in flames trying to handle this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qgtPvPvjCMY.

Nah,but in all seriousness I would be kinda afraid they would have to "downgrade" a tiny bit if it was for psp.Even now I really dont see it selling alot.Its a game that required a bit of patience and a love for wacky dialogue.(Do you remember the day,the day were the rain turn to snow?)


you do realize PSP is more powerfull than Dreamcast and that it can handle any dreamcast game?

Well,Dont take it seriously,I was joking a bit.But...no I dont think it is...the only reason its able to do as much as it can its cuz its rendering to a smaller screen.Show me it can natively render at 640x480 with anti-aliasing and texture filtering.Anyways from what I understand the psp out puts a similar polygon count to the dreamcast,around 60,000-80,000 triagles on screen( never been able to find anything solid info though) anf the dc can output around 58,000-60,000 triangles per frame at 60 fps(which is aruond 3mpps) with lighting, and texturing(and anit alaiasing.).Dc problem is it lack of memory,that was mentioned a few times in the past.Iam not a techie but these are the commen sense things Ive read about both so I might be wrong.

EDIT:Also realize what helps the psp is the modern artistic view in games that the dreamcast lacked back in its day.So it isnt so much tech prowess more than it is art style.

I would pay 2000p for this.


That sounds like more than a fair price for a game that was only ever released on Dreamcast (the origional Shenmue of course)

I suspect there would be lots of Shenmue enthusiasts that would pay even more............. myself included.

I disapprove and demand the Shenume complete experience with shenume ,2 and final chapter.



Getting an XBOX One for me is like being in a bad relationship but staying together because we have kids. XBone we have 20000+ achievement points, 2+ years of XBL Gold and 20000+ MS points. I think its best we stay together if only for the MS points.

Nintendo Treehouse is what happens when a publisher is confident and proud of its games and doesn't need to show CGI lies for five minutes.
