Shenmue Dojo

$6.6 million, we coming for you!

Hopefully this wave lasts a while and keeps people talking about the game. I'll keep trying to make the GAF thread active and hitting the first page during heavy traffic hours, but eventually we'll be running on fumes with nothing new to talk about. Hoping some new Yu/Cedric interviews hit soonish.

I believe the boost peak is still ahead of us. After all, the conference was on saturday and a lot of gaming websites posted news about it only since monday.

Yessss, thanks.

There's still plenty to mull over about the recent interviews.

I've been meaning to say this since July but always missed the chance, you've been doing an excellent work on Neogaf ever since the KS thread days, thank you very much.

Thanks. I'm going what I can. Call it guilt for doubting Shenmue 3 would ever happen.

I've subscribed to 24 threads on GAF... 23 of them are Shenmue related

I would gladly help, but you are doing better than I could hope in my best dreams.

Is it me or does the PayPal total now fairly infrequently update? It kinda used to be like clockwork where they'd stop for the weekend and resume Monday, but now we get occasional mid-week freezes.

Not a huge boost, but we're heading into the home stretch to $6.6 million. If it can sustain this level for a month we'll make it.

For what it's worth, here is a graph of the Slacker Backer progression since the campaign debuts:

Ah, good. I was reaching the point where I'd have done anything - anything - for a fix of hot graph data.

It's true, I am a graph fix whore.

The paypal support campaign is indefinite at this point correct? Perhaps it has been discussed here already but I hope Shenmue 3 can get some more publicity again at E3 this year and boost this campaign a bit more.

Magic Monaco spike is over... but those backers pledges are above the 91$ average.

Yes, every gaming event which features any Shenmue content is essentially free advertising so it can alway bring a little bit more on each occasion. Keep it open as long as possible, even until the end of the year as far as I am concerned. Leaving it open always means more money if compared to it not existing from tomorrow onwards.
