Remember, I did warn you that any announcements made by Sega at the Tokyo Game Show would be directed at Japanese audience. In the end, TGS is the wrong venue to expect big international announcements, it's all about Japanese games. Still, Sega had a pretty good TGS this year. Yakuza 6 has finally been announced; plus Sega is also creating a next-generation remake of the original game call Yakuza: Extreme, which looks awesome. Furthermore, Sega's developers at Atlus are working with Vanillaware to make a new RPG called 13 Sentinels, which aside from some questionable character designs is showing a really beautiful art style, some people are already comparing it to Ghost in the Shell. As for Shenmue 1 and 2 HD, give it time, there are plenty of opportunities in the future for Sega to make such announcement.

Yea It's not the place to announce non-Japanese stuff(however it wouldn't hurt to state where things are going to be released), know what is the place to do so, E3, which Sega was completely absent as far as I can tell.
Yea they had a really good showing, but until proven otherwise, It's a sure bet that the only 2 games we'll be getting, is Persona 5(which is ATLUS, so that doesn't really count), and Yakuza.
I don't know, Sega is very allergic to money, so I really don't see Sega ever releasing even straightup ports of Shenmue 1, and 2, which is all we should be really asking for, but anyway yea, I don't see such happening

It very much feels like Sega was all talk afterall

You don't have to like it but sooner or later you are going to have face facts and accept Persona 5 as a full-fledged Sega game. Atlus, along with the rest of Index Corporation, is now part of Sega; as has been case since September 2013 when Sega picked-up the pieces in the aftermath of Index Corporation's bankruptcy. So much better, since Atlus has been able to flourish under Sega's oversight. Persona 5 has now emerged as the best game it can possible be, a compelling AAA game that is set to become of the greatest RPGs that Sega has ever made.
Anyway, as others have pointed out – more Shenmue merchandise being made is always a big deal. The souvenirs Sega has released this year at TGS might out last the memory of the show itself. Even the most jaded gamer must take a second to look and admire the truth, that Shenmue is once again getting recognition from Sega as a major franchise. Which in a real sense opens the door for Sega to release Shenmue 1 and 2 HD when the time is right. A lot can happen be now and the end of 2017, there are any number of points along the way when Shenmue 1 and 2 HD could be announced.

Sega is not a developer anymore, all the skilled developers they have ever had, left long ago, and all they are, is some publisher that doesn't release stuff out side of Japan.
Sega might "own" ATLUS, but that's not the same thing as being considered the ones that create the games. It's also very obfious when Sega doesn't create somes, because X game doesn't suck to no end.
Do you know what Sega's idea of trying to revitalize/cash in on the Shenmue series is? A crappy mobile game(what a joke), and merchandise.
Do you not realize that the structure of Sega, is exactly the same as Konami, the only, and I mean the only thing different between the two, is they aren't assholes about it+they aren't about to leave a industry, just because their gambling machines make more money(they're completely different industries, It's beyond retarded to leave one industry if It's still profitable, just because another industry you're already a part of, is more profitable. As dumb as Sega is, I suppose we can be atleast thankful they aren't as dumb as Konami)
