I'd like to think that the Japanese audience that struggled with Kickstarter jump at the chance to do Paypal, another reason why he's probably left the announcement of this until TGS because he knows this is a real option for them, and the news of it will break whilst he's at the show. This could potentially double the amount we raised because of real Japanese support if they get behind it like we did with Kickstarter - and the additional support from us again!
I dunno about doubling; while I would like that, in the minds of a lot of people, the game is confirmed and funded, even Suzuki himself has laid out his plans based on the Kickstarter funding. And as someone pointed out in an article on this board, PayPal isn't really that popular in Japan, either :/ Hopefully there are some cool new rewards to entice people, that'd help bring in some extra cash.
Ahh right fair enough then...I still wonder why they didn't use a Japanese alternative version of Kickstarter (I assume there is one?) and release both at the same time, that would have been awesome!
Will have to see how it goes then, I just really want to meet all the stretch goals...that magic maze still sounds rather amazing

TGS might actually be the best occasion to get the Japanese audience in. It's the biggest video game fair in Japan, isn't it?
Will YS Net have their own stand or will Yu use Sony's? How and where will Yu appear on TGS?
Maybe it's about time Sega helped out and got him up on one of their stages...I mean they are expecting to make some money off a few bits of Shenmue merch!
