Video 1 - Shenmue III MINIGAME footage from IGN Japan (13 minutes)

Whew, quite a lot to digest here, even though it's pretty much just gambling.
Here are some quick thoughts.
  • Enviroments look absolutey great
  • Voice acting sounds solid
  • Love the reuse of classic sound effects
  • Turtles are adorable
  • Capsule toy buying is crazy fast and lures for fishing later?
  • The lack of music made this feel rather empty
  • Ryo's walking animation still seems a bit stiff
  • HUD has expectadly gotten a bit too cluttered and gamey

On one hand, this totally looks like Shenmue.
On the other hand... well I'll be honest here, this looks really rough. More than expected. But the video quality might be at big fault here.

On a side note: Omg they have the Shenmue characters capsule toys

I found that on a smaller screen it looks much smoother. Yes some of the animations are a bit stiff but this without question Shenmue.

Lures for capsule toys is a great idea. Not only it makes up for the lack of SEGA stuff, but it allows for some gameplay use.

Well yeah, on a smaller screen, the video artifact must be more contained. On a regular screen, the video is of too low quality. I really feel like they should control the content quality.

Hope we can customize the HUD and turn off the mini map
