We’re still pinching ourselves, because we can’t believe this is real life. Yu Suzuki is finally set to make Shenmue 3, having just announced the long awaited game at E3 and launching a Kickstarter to fund the project this week. On this episode of the Swingin’ Report Show, George and Barry discuss their reactions to the news, share opinions on the Kickstarter, and tackle the misconceptions of Sony’s involvement. We also speculate what Suzuki has planned for the third game based on past interviews and recently revealed details.

You should mention on that video that Suzuki said on Reddit that it needs AT LEAST $5 million to be a game he’s happy with, but his goal is $10 million, I know you’ve already made the video, but maybe you can add that important piece of info at the very end. Also, people are trying to get Adam Koralik to contact Rich from ReviewTechUSA since they guys have done a video together and explained to him about the situation as he recently made a pretty scathing video about the Shenmue kickstarter, Again, these are all just suggestions of what can be done, but I think they’ll all benefit project in the long run.
On shows like these, we do not go back in and add additional news after release. We’ll likely discuss this in an upcoming podcast, and we’ve shared the Reddit info in its own news post.
Thanks for the info though!
