Shenmue Dojo

I think they will unveil the Shenmue 1+2HD remasters at E3 2018 and aim for a Winter 2018 release. (so around October-December 2018)

I dont now how or when Shenmue 3 will be released though. Would hoping for a June-July 2018 release be crazy?

Either ways, just gotta wait for E3

pushed back indefinitely

Heard that too many times before when it comes to Shenmue.

But that doesn't make sense; why would they release Shenmue 1 and 2 HD after Shenmue 3 is released.

This is just a hunch, but I reckon Sega is liaising with Yu Suzuki on this right now. The recent article (http://comicbook.com/gaming/2018/01/13/ ... shed-back/) suggests that Sega is pushing back the release of HD versions until near the release of Shenmue III. If this is taken as truth, it is not improbable that Sega is currently in talks with YSnet regarding the stage of Shenmue III's development so that they can get a more concrete release date. Therefore, in case Shenmue III is delayed again, Sega can also push back Shenmue HD further once more.

It would make sense since it is mutually beneficial for both Sega and YSnet to release Shenmue HD close to the release of Shenmue III. Besides, despite Sega not playing a role in Shenmue III's development, Yu Suzuki has still maintainted contact with them throughout the project, in acquiring the rights to make Shenmue III, the rights to include the Sega arcade games etc. No way has he cut off relations with Sega.

Wouldn't be bad if HD was released just before, or even simultaneously with 3- they likely want to release at peak hype.
The perfect time WOULD HAVE BEEN with 3's announcement- the community absolutely blew up and people were throwing money at Shenmue.
Of course that could have meant a bit less money for 3, so depends how you look at it ;)
I'm hoping for at least a simultaneous release, but preferably shortly before 3- you better believe I'm gonna play the hecc outta 1&2 again right before I play 3

I just thought about it :
Do you think a Shenmue 1+2 remaster would include the functionality/services of the shenmue passport ?
(Or something similar ?)

I think that I never thought about this because it's not the main point of the shenmue games.

However, maybe it's something one could look forward.
Even, only the offline parts of the passport, could be interesting to have again.

People should accept that Shenmue HD is not happening.

Well you could have told us sooner. I just feel silly now.

You're just now starting to feel silly about yourself? pheew

Well, it won't ever happen if you have a negative attitude like this.

I’m a lot more confident about Shenmue HD happening right now, than I ever was about Shenmue 3 coning out before it was announced. Shenmue 3 happened and I’m pretty sure HD will happen too.

There’s a lot of evidence suggesting it will happen, again, far more evidence than we had for Shenmue 3.

Are you saying that the fortune teller lied to me???

Probably some card game or something.

At this point, we have to wait for E3 or TGS. Other than that, we just have to keep demanding.
