I am curious is it worth getting the Japanese version of the original Shenmue? Like is it only in Japanese or Japanese spoken and English subtitles or vice versa or are all options available? I am studying Japanese and the original Shenmue game helped keep me motivated because I would always see Japanese kanji everywhere, although some once you got close enough or used a certain button translated for you as I recall. I am wanting a more immersive version now. But I want to know what the options are if anyone knows. I can get it for about $25 used which is surprising to me, especially since the English version is still $50 and the second game on the Dreamcast is over $100. O_o I am still kicking myself for not picking up a copy while I was in Japan.
Or is there an official Dojo free modded version some where? I already have the original, I am not really worried about which region it is from. Or is there one that was fan made that has all language options, at least when subtitles are concerned? I had heard something talked about in the forums, but not sure where it is by now.
Or are the HD remakes, if those are even a thing, will have the same options I am looking for now?
