Magic Monaco Press Conference

[Revan]

Itching for the camera guy to just walk up and say "Look, I'm real happy for you and all, but show us Shenmue 3!"

 

[Spaghetti]

True. If they kicked things off with Shenmue III, the room would be empty within thirty seconds following its conclusion.

Can't blame them. Shibuya has an event to promote, and Shenmue III is arguably their Ace up the sleeve in terms of reaching a wider audience with the press conference.

 

[SledgeNE]

Everytime i hear Shenmue 3 i'm happy.

 

[ShenGCH]

Everytime i hear Shenmue 3 i'm happy.

You must be pretty unhappy, then.

 

[Revan]

ITS HERE!!!!

 

[Jigen]

Hears Shenmue *heart flutters*

 

[Revan]

ITS HERE!!!!

...Aaaaand, its over.

 

[SledgeNE]

Suzuki on Magic?

 

[Spaghetti]

Cedric will talk about Shenmue at the end. Has a lot to say about it, apparently.

Not sure if they just announced that Yu will be at MAGIC or not.

 

[Reprise]

So, what was said?

 

[Sheephead]

Someone said in facebook chat that he said he was going to talk about S3 at the end of the conference. Also it has just been confirmed that Yu Suzuki will be at Magic on March 9th!

 

[Spaghetti]

"Yu Suzuki will be at Magic 2019. He's a regular since Shibuya Production co-produce Shenmue III, which is a highly anticipated video game. We'll talk about Shenmue III at the end of the press conf so that you don't leave earlier ( :) ), since I have a lot of things to say, I had to write down stuff as I have to talk about some stuff specifically from a PR standpoint."

 

[Reprise]

Cool. I mean, he was there last year and it was ****ing atrocious, but here's hoping with the release date in sight, that this time they mean business... No more delays...

 

[ShenGCH]

That self-awareness, though

 

[Revan]

Lan Di just left.

 

[DigitalDuck]

Lan Di only stuck around for Shenmue, left immediately afterwards.

Found out the Phoenix Mirror wasn't there.

 

[Jigen]

You'd figure a company like Shibuya would have a better live setup.

As someone who works in video production... you would be surprised. I think they're just taking a low-cost option because something fancier might not justify itself. I remember last year for the Monaco pre-event press conference they had a company doing the livestream for them, but now they've just got someone with a phone.

 

[ShenGCH]

Does anyone here suffer from insomnia or know someone who suffers from insomnia?

Send them a link to the stream once it is archived.
