I will be selling everything I can—games, software, movies, DVDs, Blu-Ray, memorabilia, old game magazines, everything I can reasonably say to myself that I don't need, use regularly, or intend to use in the foreseeable future, and buy again if I want to someday. I'll only have one chance to help fund Shenmue 3. I've been waiting for this chance for half my life and had all but completely given up on it.

I will also go into some debt, which is okay because I don't have any debt and have very good credit. I can take one of those zero-interest-for-a-year offers that I keep getting to an extent where I can pay it back in less than six months.

I'll go on a diet and stop eating so much take out and convenience store food (although I'll miss the Tomato Mart). I can save hundreds of dollars a month doing that. It'll be hard, because I do love my Tomato, but I'll do everything I can.

I'm still trying to think of what else I can do…


Dude, that is so true. If you really do that you an be a bit healthier to cut out the addictions and be a part of something you really love. It can be a huge motivation and I hope you can do it =D>

I'm waiting to see the next reward tiers to up my total. I don't have a number in mind but of course I have responsibilities that take precedence. I have a couple credit cards with $0 balance and check offers for 0% APR for 18 months so if anything I'll put it on there if its something I want like being an NPC or replica mirrors.

Otherwise I will donate monthly via PayPal if they set that up as well automatically around $50 a month.

Actually came at a pretty good time for me, I had just got through selling a bunch of video-games and actually had some extra cash for once.

All of which were stolen, obviously.

I have donated to mid tier rewards, unfortunately it looks like I have overspent my money this month. I will be joining in the $30 on the 3rd as well, but next month will be time to restrict myself to basic necessities.

I wouldn't sell my NES/SNES collection if you put a gun to my head.

More power to you though, I guess.

I love them both, but out of all the consoles I own they are among my least favorite to collect for in terms of the games on the consoles. I am very attached to my 5th and 6th generation game collection and will likely not be touching any of those, although anything is possible with how badly I want to help in funding this game.

The Good: I'm getting a bonus the week before the KS ends.
The Bad: The Kickstarter is sandwiched between a bachelor party and wedding, which both require travel. Plus I have to rent a tux for the wedding (I'm in the wedding party).

Other than that, I can't really go too much higher in my pledge without it being insanely irresponsible. Only if the Phoenix Mirror replica tier is like $300-$500.
