    Random Shenmue IV Thoughts.

    I flit between thinking nothing is happening to thinking the cogs are whirring in the background. When in cog-mode I (arbitrarily and probably bullshit-ly) think back end of this year or mid-next. I’ve no idea why, as I say. When in nothing-mode, I just feel it’s collecting dust.

    Random Shenmue Thoughts

    I did not know that was the name of the ship. Another interesting tidbit. But yeah, I know the feeling you’re getting at. It’s weird. Element of thinking, don’t do it Ryo.

    Smashing. I feel the same. It does have shortcomings, but I really don’t care, they don’t bother me at all, to be honest.

    What Movie Are You Watching?

    Watched Porco Rosso the other night, man, some of the scenes in that film. It’s not Ghibli’s greatest film - that goes to The Boy and the Heron, or Grave of the Fireflies, if you ask me - but it’s still fantastic. Everything I’ve seen by them has been pretty much perfect so far. Incredibly...

    It’d be a shame if it just disappeared without a trace, although if it’s not doing too good I guess that may end up being the reality of it. It did get an update the other day however, I suppose. It’s good to see YS still up to stuff anyway, particularly as this isn’t like any game he’s made...

    Blu-Ray Release?

    The only physical release would be those knock-off DVDs on eBay… wish there was an official Blu-Ray but I suspect it’ll never happen. Not sure if it’s still on CrunchyRoll. I thought it was alright, but anime isn’t my thing. It’s worth a watch anyway, it’s Shenmue innit.

    ININ Games is the New Publisher of Shenmue 3

    Yeah, not gonna risk a mortgage payment on a superfluous vinyl box ha. I wish there was a complete S1/S2 soundtrack thing though, I couldn’t resist that.

    I’ve got the CD box and the 2LP comp, I want the full box on vinyl, but money/space, eternal enemies. Plus really, am I ever gonna listen to the complete soundtrack on vinyl? Nice thing to own but I cannot justify it. I still want it though. One day… even if, like you, I do have enough ha…...

    I’ve only been able to play like two hours or so, not a reflection of the game, just cuz it’s difficult to find the time to, don’t get loads of spare time between work and family stuff, but I had fun with it, it’s not gonna blow your mind, but it’s colourful and mindless and the music is pretty...

    Shenmue Real Locations Chapter 2 ~ Hong Kong ~

    Always a pleasure reading these posts. Thank you. I’m sure someone posted these here before, otherwise I dunno how I came across them, but these photos of Hong Kong in the 70s/80s are fantastic: https://www.keithmacgregorphotography.com/hong-kong-in-the-70s

    I wonder if 100k downloads is THAT bad. If I’d have heard it’d done 100k without the context of that article I would’ve been pleasantly surprised. The other thing is that announcement trailer at whatever games show it was - that must’ve cost a lot of money, curious how that compares to the 100k...

    ININ Games is the New Publisher of Shenmue 3

    I think this seems like a very likely scenario really, given it’s been pretty much confirmed - if only in passing - that ports are coming. Not doing a Switch 2 port would’ve been a massive oversight, given the popularity of it and the original model. I’d LIKE to think that it’s possible the...
