Just wanna say Switch, you have been absolutely golden with the translation work since coming on board.

Absolutely amazing job. Hats off sir

[Switch]

Thanks for the support!

I'm glad to help the Shenmue community leap over that language barrier.

1 in every capsule

On Sale October 28th

That's all that's written on the tv screen?

[Rakim]

Yeah

[south carmain]

Thanks. Could you translate what's written under shenmue?

[Rakim]

That just says:

Shenmue
Chapter 1 Yokosuka

[south carmain]

So the video translates to "shhenmue Chapter 1 Yokosuka. Release date: October 28th"

That's interesting.

looks like they are selling capsules with dreamcast themed badges inside, 200 yen? my japanese is very bad so i'm not sure.
its nice that they are doing this, finally acknowledging the nostalgic appeal of their past.

maybe a hint at the re-release of a much loved dreamcast classic?

Just wondering what the scrolling text at the beginning of this video says? Wondering when this footage was shot, I assume it was promo for Shenmue II?

You're in luck, the date its from is the first thing it says actually. "An unspecified day in August 2000"

Thanks very much! Bit of a odd date, what was happening in August that they would promote? The first game was released in Japan in December '99, and the 2nd wouldn't be released until September 2001?

i tried using google translator. does this correctly mean "70 man battle"? - 70男の戦い

thanks in advance.

[Rakim]

Google almost gave you proper Japanese, but the 70 man battle seems to be referred to as 70人抜き or 70人抜きバトル in the Japanese fandom. May I ask what you're going to do with this information?
