Happy Fourth of July to all the Shenmue fans celebrating in the US today, and a big THANK YOU to everyone who participated from around the world in yesterday's #SaveShenmueHD Tweetathon!
Once again the series' most tireless, persevering fans, including Shenmue 3 co-producer Cédric Biscay, joined forces to spread the word and be heard on the 3rd. The demand for HD re-releases of Shenmue 1 & 2 is unrelenting, as with each passing month the urgency to have these games made available on modern platforms in time for Shenmue 3's arrival grows more and more pressing.
The next Tweetathon is scheduled for - you guessed it - August 3rd, so we hope you'll be there to keep raising awareness of the ongoing PayPal crowdfunding page (
shenmue.link/order) and maintain the pressure for Sega to commit to reviving this unported series in full.
If you missed yesterday's event and want to avoid the same mistake next month, be sure to activate your AutoTweet at
TeamYu.net/HD for the easiest way to support the campaign!
