it actually only cost 47 million

[TeamAndromeda]

$47 Million is for development of the Dreamcast Versions . $70 million if for the project as a whole including PR and Saturn development

[Asbjørn Halsten]

i would actually pay 10 - 20 dollars if someone made a fund like that!

lets give SEGA 70 000 000 DOLLARS!!! together vi can do it!!

shenmue is to EPIC to go to waste..

[sybnios]

No they haven't.

Shenmue was the father for many many games. After Shemue many games took elements from it. So many games... The QTE, the weather effects, mini games and many more but never no other game was so solid and well made as Shenmue! It was a technical achievement back then that looks awesome even today! These days we have interesting graphics but nothing as BIG as Shenmue was back then. We only care for graphics, Shenmue was deep, it had everything..
