Support NeoGAF

[GavinGT]

Ok so this is the first kickstarter im putting towards.
Im broke as **** but I want to put in $100. Gotta support my man Suzuki.

The $100 reward seemed good but it seems i only get the PC physical version?
I want the PS4 physical version. What are my options? Select PS4 physical edition reward and up my pledge to $100?

Any pledge $60 or more lets you choose any version you want.

Update News:

PS4 physical copy now a platform choice! All tiers $60 and above will include your choice of the following:

PS4 Physical Copy
PS4 Digital Copy
Windows PC Physical Copy
Windows PC Digital Copy
*Changes to Reward pledge buttons are not allowed after they are pledged for, so please see the "Rewards" section below for complete Reward details.

just don't pawn my capsule toy and we're cool

How will that part be done? We send them a photo or something? Never backed anything in my life.

 

[SuperCambot]

Would anyone here up their pledge if 7M meant "Licence to produce Shenmue 1 & 2 HD Remasters"

 

[Flandy]

welp
Unexpected bill came up coupled with having to pay for Fall Classes pretty soon means that I unfortunately have to drop my pledge. Don't know if I can spare the $60 and I'd rather not take the risk. I'm sorry Gaf ;__;

Heh, life sucks.

In the same position, except that my bills are for having to replace the unexpected death of my work laptop. Will still pledge, but can't deal more than $30.

 

[Ryo Hazuki]

I liked how Yu Suzuki thanked us.

 

[benzy]

No, I'd rather have the battle system upgrades.

Don't worry, tempted to up my Pledge from $29 to $100 anyway.

Will use this Devil Third Money to put it towards another Industry Legend.

Wait...only the $80 Amount has the Phone Card?!

 

[Spaghetti]

no idea. i think when the time comes they'll ask for a picture as an art reference.

 

[ajim]

I love you yu Suzuki!!!

 

[sturgboski]

Well, they got me. I wanted some addons so I can get the $100 one with the art book (sucker for those). No addons means I had to do the $160 pledge. You win this round Shenmue 3.

Onward to the $6m.

Well, the Tax Man overcharged me £70 and gave a cheque...Yu deserves £63.96 ($100) of that.


Even HM Revenue and Customs want this to succeed!

 

[TAJ]

Just upped my pledge to $185.

 

[MassiveNights]

Are we seeing a spike? Not really been keeping track since I pledged a few weeks ago.

 

[Ryo Hazuki]

New image! Kinda...

 

[Loudninja]

Yep!

 

[benzy]

In about 2 more hours people will be posting the graphs for today.

 

[ArisenDragon]

It is almost the end...

 

[GavinGT]

$184k for the third to last day and $277k for the second to last.

We're entering the slow hours of the day now. Things should really pick up in about 11 hours.

 

[IronicSonic]

Is this a new artwork?

 

[DEATH_INC]

It is almost the end...

I still can't believe that I can play through Shenmue II and when it says "The story goes on..." That it actually is. Surreal.

It is insane. I feel bad I am a huge fan of the series but I only pledged 29 bucks. I don't really get physical copies of games anymore.

Aww, this is so great. **wipes away tear**

Accurate Picture of these last days:

 

[Spaghetti]

Is this a new artwork?

no but i've never seen it. might be unreleased.

"Before the Kickstarter began, Ryo could be seen here trying to hang himself."

I'm just pulling the hype train. It's all good.

Don't feel bad, be happy and content that you contributed regardless the amount. Every pledge counts and the campaign is doing great.

 

[_Ryo_]

Could you tell me where Wan Chai is?

 

[Spaghetti]

i was gonna say it'll be slow until the morning, but we're steaming ahead to 5.4 easy. i might not check the page for the whole time i'm at work just to be surprised by the numbers.

It's still on pace for about 10k an hour, but that will hopefully double or triple in the final 12 hours.

 

[Dineren]

It has probably already been mentioned, but Double Fine was kind enough to mention the Shenmue 3 kickstarter in an update today.

Shenmue 3

There’s only one more day to back Shenmue 3, the long awaited sequel that was announced would be partially funded through Kickstarter at this year’s E3. They’re way over their target already, but don’t miss out on this opportunity to be part of gaming history!

that's not bad for the hours when basically all/most of europe and america are asleep.

[Lindsay]

Hurrah! Happy 60k backers!

Kind of. Since people in this own thread are using alt accounts >.>

What if there are only 6 Shenmue fans with 10,000 accounts each??

 

[Ryo Hazuki]

60,000 backers!!!

 

[TAJ]

Is that a stealth troll? "partially funded"

 

[pcostabel]

60.000 backers!

 

[andrerobot]

¡Vamos Shenmue!

 

[Loudninja]

I see 60,005 backers.

 

[Deleted member 80556]

There has been a huge spike in backers (not to mention pledges), god damn.

 

[ArisenDragon]

Yep true, at least we hit over 60,000 backers.
