Wait what Shuhei Yoshida Contributed $29 to Shenmue kickstarter

[MeachTheMonster]

Once again, this is a thread about this man's personal money and how he chose to spend it in regards to the game. I dont know what you are failing to understand here

"oh he's rich, he should've donated more"

You dont see the problem with this attitude?

He's rich and is the president of the video game company trying to take credit for this games existence. And claimes he's a personal fan of the game.

Plenty of people who aren't rich, and who don't benefit personally from this games existence have invested much more.

@MeachTheMonster is right.

When I saw kickstarter on the e3 stage I was like what the duck??? You came to e3 to show off a game that we have to pay for??? Where the fuk they do that at??? Y'all suppose to develop it and we buy it. Now we gotta pay for development???

shyt is retarded I just don't get it. Imagine if EA came out with this they would be crucified.




On topic though. Why does this nikka need to put up his personal money?? If he didn't give a dime then this wouldn't be story

He made personal statements about his affinity for the game. It's not unreasonable to expect him to put his money where his mouth is, especially considering he expects, not rich fans to fund the game

So its been announced as coming on xbox

Its been announced that other platforms are being "discussed"

Exclsuive games don't get outside platforms "discussed"

You do know the game is PS4/PC only right???

Ok but still. When have you ever heard a CEO do this. If ebro at hot 97 says he fukk with 50 to buy his album. He might buy a few through the company. Any business dude do this. They'll buy through the company creit card but not spend a dime personally

Console exclusive and look at the title...

Meach has a PC

The differnce is, 50cent isn't running a kickstarter for his album. And Ebro isn't the CEO of the company taking credit for 50s new album.

So what. Shenmue is shemnu. That was an example. Any CEO who likes something wouldn't reinvesting personally they use company money.

[MeachTheMonster]

Shenmue 3 is looking like it won't be the real shenmue, and that's the problem

 

[Fatboi1]

Answer the question. You said they are taking credit for it. Where did Sony or any Sony rep say "If it wasn't for us, this game wouldn't have existed." or something similar.

 

[Dominic Brehetto]

Link me to them taking credit.
