Shenmue creator Yu Suzuki is working on a new game, although it’s not a follow-up to Ryo’s sailor-finding epic. It’s not even a console game, it’s an iPhone game.
In news that’ll surely crush the heart of anyone wanting another episode in the shelf-opening, forklift truck driving, food-buying adventure, the Japanese legend has opted for Mediano’s entag! platform, rather than anything with physical controls.
Of course, this is all just to help fund Shenmue 3, naturally. Somebody show the man Kickstarter – isn’t that how every game is financed these days?

If they would do a Kickstarter campaign for Shenmue 3 I’m sure they would reach their goal no matter how much money they ask for…

I like the slant face :3
I think iPhone games really have their limit, and the mess that is the App Store does not help the best games and apps make it to the top, just the ones that are the most popular, and as we know from mass media the most popular or widely received isnt necessarily the best.
Also, just started playing Shenmue and the developers paid a lot of attention to detail, i’d definitely like to see it continued.
