Preview of upcoming Shenmue print by John Sweeney

[Ziming]

If you remember a month or two ago we got news that some classic Sega game prints were being made. Today NeoGAF user CookBeck reveals the Shenmue print to everyone. Orders will begin next week.

Part of the proceeds going back to the Kickstarter. Nice!

Don't particulary like the print, looks like a random dude in the $3k jacket lol? Also seems like they're trying to benefit off the Shenmue hype train, doesn't matter if part of the proceeds go to Kickstarter, they'll make more money now than they would have 2 weeks ago.

Well, according to that post, he's the lead concept artist for TLOU and Uncharted 4. Hopefully he has quite the following that could lead to a little more exposure and interest from... outsiders.

What do they mean print?

It's just a large poster you can frame on the wall.

I think it looks cool (loved a few other classic sega ones he did) but man i wish there was a cheaper price on em, haha

I was like where is the print Til I realized it's the photo shown on here... Not liking this in particular. BUT, any attention Shenmue can get these days is good. So thanks anyway!

Yea not a fan and nowhere near as cool as their other stuff. This just looks like a poorly lit photograph with a dude who likes 30 in a cheap jacket (doesn't even look leather).

But, the silver lining is a portion of the proceeds going to the Kickstarter, which is very good. So let's hope it sells. I'd never spend that kind of money on this though.

The composition was made based on a photo shoot. -Cookbeck
