Japanese/European game versions on US dreamcast

Unless you've got $20,000,000 (conservative estimate) in cold, hard cash, there's no way Sega'd even think of making a new Shenmue game. The last two were money pits, and the new administration isn't in the mood for risks. An online petition won't do anything. Good luck anyway I suppose.

I'd be more interested in seeing a build of the Saturn game, to be honest.[/code]

Actually to produce the what is out now costed them over 70 million which should be in the Guinnes book or world records for highest deveopment cost

With that in mind, you think that an internet petition is going to encourage them to spend that kind of cash again?

But they said they had not released all that they had made from the port from of the unreleased saturn Version i heard that they nwere up to Ch 8 and they released
Shenmue 1=ch 1
Shenmue 2=Ch3, 4,5,6

and they want shenmue 3 to finish the rest of the 16 chapters

Back on the original topic, the Gameshark CDX/Action Replay CDX does WAY better on playing imports than the Utopia disc, which has spotty compatibility. The Gameshark CDX actually reboots the system, whereas the Utopia one just loads the executable... don't ask me why once the system is rebooted with the CDX imports become playable, but they do.
For those of you who are getting ready to whine "But I can't find the Gameshark CDX in stores!"... there is a cracked one floating around. If you can't find it in stores, odds are they aren't making cash off of it anyway anymore, so it's up to you. Like I said, most (if not all) games work with the CDX but not Utopia. I was so disappointed when I bought my first DC import (Rent-a-Hero No.1) and the Utopia disc somehow screwed it up so you couldn't leave this one room near the very beginning...
I also recall hearing something about certain regions having issues with memory cards formatted on another region's consoles, but American VMUs do work with Shenmue 2. I'm not sure if Euro games need their own card though or wipe the other region's data a-la Gamecube though, I don't remember.
