Fans Campaign For Shenmue 4 With Times Square Ad In New York



Quote
The ad was placed by a fan site, Shenmue Dojo. The stated goal of Shenmue Dojo's campaign is to "support the continuation of the series and attempt to spread global awareness to find [developer] Ys Net a potential partner for Shenmue 4." The Times Square ad also included the hashtag #LetsGetShenmue4.
In the short term, the campaign successfully managed to get Shenmue trending on X. However, getting a fourth game in the series may still be an uphill battle. Shenmue III debuted to mixed or negative reviews in 2019, and the sales weren't high enough to immediately warrant a sequel.

Campaign is now live: a Sega Dreamcast Encyclopedia of every NA Game with Brenden Swan's unique artwork for each game so it doubles as an artbook!









Quote
Relive the golden days of the Dreamcast with a small tear in your eye with this encyclopedia/artbook
Shenmue, Jet Grind Radio, Skies of Arcadia, Phantasy Star Online, Space Channel 5, Sonic the Hedgehog, all of 'em

A guidebook on all NA Sega Dreamcast games. Instead of screenshots like similar books, what sets mine apart is each game is catalogued with beautiful handcrafted artwork. Perfect for that coffee table book you can pull out from time to time, enjoying the gorgeous artwork, a small tear in your eyes as you relive the memories of those Dreamcast golden days.
Whether you were there the day it came out or just now getting into the Dreamcast, revel in the nostalgia of arguably retro gaming's most unique library.

Shenmue Quiz Challenge (Homebrew) for SEGA Saturn is in The Work

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YN67fV6N1P8

Nai Adventure: *Shenmue Quiz Challenge* is a homebrew created to celebrate the 25th anniversary of *Shenmue*!
With a free release scheduled for Christmas, the game will be compatible with the Sega Saturn.

New features of the update:
Save and load function on internal memory and backup cartridge;
Expressions on Ryo when you get several questions wrong in a row;
Art gallery where you can buy Shenmue concept art using the score obtained in the game.

What's still to come:
Solve compatibility issues: some functions that run well on the emulator still have difficulties on the real console – my biggest challenge at the moment;
Add more questions to the quiz;
Optimize loading times
