Shenmue fans want you!

As all of us should know, Shenmue is one of Sega’s defining games, representing innovation and ambition on the Dreamcast and videogames in general. It’s a masterpiece in every sense of the word, but it’s an unfinished one.

Now, we all know too well that one of us could never sway Sega’s opinion on the matter of releasing Shenmue 3. But some of the Shenmue Dojo community, myself included, have decided to band together and get Sega to at least take note that the fans are still out there, and we want our ending! Hopefully we’ll get some gamers talking about Shenmue again at the same time!

So what can you do to help?

Well If you have a MySpace account, you could check out the Shenmue MySpace Campaign! Add them to your friends list and leave some comments!

You could sign the online petition. Okay, so they don’t usually work, but did you know that Yu Suzuki once mentioned this specific online petition a few years back? So we know that Sega is taking notice! SIGN RIGHT HERE!

You could make a YouTube video for Shenmue. Lots of people have been doing it just that. Add it to THIS GROUP!

What about using your IGN account to add Shenmue 3 to your wish list? It increases popularity for the game.

Do you go to any forums we don’t? You could always make a Shenmue-related topic to get people talking.

Got any of your own ideas, or want to talk about this more with others? Join the SHENMUE DOJO FORUMS, and go to the Shenmue Campaign section.

If you happen to be a good website designer with some time on your hands, and this kind of thing has taken your interest, why not get in contact with me at ryan@seganerds.com. I have a website that needs work and no one to help me!

This is for all you Shenmue fans out there!
