Shenmue Documentary - PART 2 COMPLETE! (Link to Free Vid)

Post by Jagosaurus »

This is a great 20 minute documentary on Shenmue II by a YouTuber, Andrew Pine. We've crossed paths a lot over the past few years online, cool guy and really loves Sega and Shenmue, passion shows in this video as he travels to Hong Kong.

Great production value, Andrew is a film/editing guru. Enjoy. Also, keep in mind part 2 is in production. Andrew made a trip to Japan to film a second installment! [Now complete, see update below]

Wanted to plug this for the Shenmue fans on this board :mrgreen:

He also does graphical showcase vids, Turbo Views (turbo grafx segments), and several others on his channel if you want to check out his other stuff.

Update 2/24/14
Looks like part 2 of this documentary will be released by the end of February. Link to Andrew's update video below in thread

Update 2/26/14 Via Andrew:
"I have great news! The new movie comes out on Friday, February the 28th at 10am AEST!"

10am down under is 5p CST in the States I believe. Exciting development for the Shenmue community! :D

Watching now! Also, Shenmue Dojo made a comment pointing out that Yu Suzuki will be talking at GDC this year about the development process for Shenmue. Pretty crazy to think about!

It was unfortunate he was not able to make it out to Guilin, but all the other locations were just as good, and mostly accurate for 1986.

I know. Excited to see where he goes in part 2.

Agreed Ben....we're a small, niche community & even something this great is taking some time to get the hits it deserves.

Loved it! Wished I had seen it sooner, so I could have contributed to his Indiegogo campaign.

Posted from my mobile so if the vid doesn't work it's on Andrew's (aka ItsCoolFromSaturn) channel. I'll keep an eye out & post the link to part 2 also! Great news for the Shenmue/Sega/retro community!
