I have some for you, but they are not all scans, only pictures. Also, I remember the first time I heard of Shenmue, it was in an article in a 1998 issue of Tips & Tricks magazine. Maybe someone can find it? Sorry about these pictures size, I tried to upload them as attachments, but it said "File extension not allowed". Links to their source can be found above the pictures.

Hey guys, I'm Reprise. I've never posted here before, but I've known of your site for a long time now, and I visit it a lot. Firstly I'd just like to say what a fantastic site it is. I love it! I've been absolutely mesmerised by Shenmue since Ithe first time I heard about it. Must have been back in around 1998. I can't believe I'm still a huge fan of the series 12 years later.

Secondly, the reason I'm posting is, I noticed your recent post about scans and articles today, and I was wondering if you'd like some scans I just did yesterday? I run a Sega blog, and decided to post some old Shenmue articles and reviews I have.
Check them out here: http://sega-ages.blogspot.com/2010/08/o ... views.html

They are from the UK magazine, GamesMaster.
They are in order as follows: April 1999, December 1999, February 2000, December 2000, and December 2001.

Hope you enjoy.

Also just in case there's any rules about promoting your own sites etc, I don't mind having that link removed and the scans may be posted directly here or whatever you wish.

Here's three scans of ODM #4, where they previewed all of the big Dreamcast gamers coming from SEGA's big names (Suzuki, Mizuguchi, Naka, etc.)

But here's Shenmue's three pages of glory:
