KIKIZO, please do this for us!

Hi KIKIZO,

Can you do a new interview with Yu Suzuki &
ask these 12 new questions from him?
It was around this time last year you had an interview with him, right?

(Note:There is no Shenmue III question in here
because his answer about SIII is Shhhhhhhh!)

So, our questions from Yu Suzuki as one of the legendary game developers
are these:

1-Where is AM Plus? Why your new RD dep is so silent?
(In 2005 you have told to Japan' s monthly Dorimaga publication, that we can expect new games for both Arcade systems and Next Gen consoles from AM Plus just like what AM2 did for home consoles in old days)

2-Will you make new games for Xbox 360, Wii, DS, PS3 and PSP?

3-What happened to PSY-PHI? that arcade game?

4-What' s your comment about Virtua Fighter 5?

5-What' s your comment about AM2 & it' s current president " Hiroshi Kataoka" ?

6-When Shenmue Online will release?
(for US, Europe and Japan as well as China)

7-What' s your comment about new generation consoles?
Now that all of them are out which one will win?

8-Do you have budget problems with Sega on creating high-budge titles?

9-Do you know that your fans are waiting to see some new YS games?
(for years)If yes then what' s your surprise for this E3 and TGS 2007?

10-Why these days other game publishers such as Konami or
Nintendo are much faster than Sega (in making sequels)?

11-Are you working with Tohishiro Nagoshi in behind the scenes ?
(If not then what' s your comment about Yakuza aka Ryu Ga Gotoku,
as a new new high-budget franchise from Sega)

12-Will your previous game titles such as
Out Run, Space Harrier, Shenmue & etc remain at Sega-AM2 just like
what happened to Virtua Fighter series?(Or they' ve moved to AM plus)

Yeah! That' s my petition, too!

On a side note, alimn, I' m pretty sure that they canned the shenmue online project.

As long as AM2 and Smilebit keep up the good work i don' t particularly care what the rest are doing.

GIVE US ANOTHER JET SET RADIO!!!!

1. Never tell all you know.

GIVE US ANOTHER JET SET RADIO!!!!

EXACTLY! I loved Jet Set Radio. Never mind Shenmue 3 (shit I really should not have said that......)! Just give us another Jet Set Radio and we will be happy!

In reply to MIC

No Shenmue Online is alive as well as YS,but it' s still only for China & Korea...
There is also a long SO trailer from recent China Joy Expo.
(Be sure to check it out, you may have not seen it yet.)

Here is a link for you about recent Shenmue Online info and stuff.

As you know AM2 exists and VF5 is their new game for X360 and Ps3 but
Smilebit doesn' t exists anymore.(As a separate departement )

Today Sega is very different...Good old days... :<

In reply to TIZ

IGN wants Jet set Radio too,...here is their recent article

What DC titles deserve a second life on next-gen consoles?

In reply to Duffman

Please, don' t talk about Shenmue III in this topic.Thanks.
(I really don' t like to talk about Shenmue III in KIKIZO forums anymore
, Because it seems that KIKIZO don' t like this too)

Meh, AM6, Smilebit, GE, ...whatever. Same thing. SEGA don' t make worthy games anymore, Sammy have killed them. Only AM2 maintain the age old SEGA quality, the rest have dive-bombed.

I want another Panzer Dragoon though...

yeah i really want another jet set radio, but more like the first one not the second one, it was too easy & I liked doing the graffiti motions & the soundtrack was insane. Also i want them to give gun valkrie another go, fucking loved that game. oh, and space channel 5, Rez & one more virtual on with crazy robot textures

I hated Jet set Radio. Mainly becuase it sucked.

Change is inevitable. Except from a vending machine.

Viva La Revolution! erm, I mean Viva La Wii!

I hated Jet set Radio. Mainly becuase it sucked.

The thing about jet set radio was it was just soo unique & fun. The sense of style is still unmatched by anygame as far as I' m concerned & the only other game that comes close is also from Sega Rez. Of course being an ex- raver type( no never done drugs but I use to go to and put on alot of parties & I also DJ in the cayman Islands and I' m addicted to electronic music like a crack whore) might also be a factor as I swear sega use to cater to our type.

Tell Sega to give us PS3 players voice chat for Armored Core 4
How the hell can you finally give us online but not give us Voice Chat I mean its cool the 360 has it but whats not cool is that the System that gave brith to Armored core Dosent have it man thats wrong in so many ways. I will ban Armored Core from my house I think its wrong give us chat .


When I heard Sega was making this game I said all man they are gonna jack this game up. But it looks nice but where my dam Voice Chat Sega is jacking everything up. Give us Voice chat.

I first thought I had written something without knowing it ;) Untill I saw it was alimn' s proposition for a Shenmue interview.

And I just hope that they didn' t can Shenmue Online. Not that I prefer it over more regular Shenmue games. But after all this time it has gotten so far, that I just want to see something Shenmue-related get finished and released.

Sorry for the inconvenience ys,
I changed my avatar.
BTW I' m not asking for a Shenmue interview...!!!!
I only want a Yu Suzki interview but if Kikizo likes they
can aslo ask them about Shenmue...

In backing to this topic...

" Kikizo"
What happened? Will you finally do this for us?

As you see a new interview can be great!
there is a huge demand for this...
there are too many questions...
(even if you don' t ask about Shenmue from him)

Where is Yu Suzuki!!! Is he alive?

Since I live in Ireland I could track him down and kick his ass for saying Jet Set Radio sucked.... Ireland is pretty small so it won' t take me long to find him....

Good man! How much?

Good man! How much?

If you are ever in Ireland just buy me a few pints and that will do as payment....

Correct me if I' m wrong, but is there a giant Guinness pint outside the Guiness factory?? I can' t remember whether it' s the burnt in memory of a joke, or I actually saw a giant Guinnness...

No unfortunately there isn' t a giant pint of Guinness outside the Guinness brewery. LOL It would be pretty damn cool if there was! This talk of Guinness is making me thirsty! I' m off to the pub..... Anybody want to come?

The thing is that it can be very hard to get access to Yu and for good reason, and it can take a long time to plan and sort out. However, we will see what we can do.

I can answer some of this stuff though I agree it would be better to get it more up-to-date from horse' s mouth. For now though:

1-Where is AM Plus?
Closed.

2-Will you make new games for Xbox 360, Wii, DS, PS3 and PSP?
Who knows.

3-What happened to PSY-PHI? that arcade game?
Cancelled.

4-What' s your comment about Virtua Fighter 5?
He probably hasn' t played it much.

5-What' s your comment about AM2 & it' s current president " Hiroshi Kataoka" ?
Kataoka, for the record, rules.

6-When Shenmue Online will release?
2007

7-What' s your comment about new generation consoles?
Now that all of them are out which one will win?
Don' t know, too worried about my job and the way I have been demonised for Shenmue.

8-Do you have budget problems with Sega on creating high-budge titles?
Yes.

9-Do you know that your fans are waiting to see some new YS games?
(for years)If yes then what' s your surprise for this E3 and TGS 2007?
Yes.

10-Why these days other game publishers such as Konami or
Nintendo are much faster than Sega (in making sequels)?
Dunno.

11-Are you working with Tohishiro Nagoshi in behind the scenes ?
(If not then what' s your comment about Yakuza aka Ryu Ga Gotoku,
as a new new high-budget franchise from Sega)
No.

12-Will your previous game titles ... remain at Sega-AM2
Yes they are all AM2, not me.

13. GIVE US ANOTHER JET SET RADIO!!!!
This was never Am2 or Yu-san anyway.

;-)

I thought this thread might say:

" Adam could you personaly do the in-depth review for PS3 VF5, just like old times"

Or something. :)

Sorry for the inconvenience ys,
I changed my avatar.

It' s nothing man. You didn' t have to change, hehe. It just confused me for a second :P

Thanks for the answers Adam! So AM Plus is already closed TOO....??! And Shenmue Online would see a release this year. That' s cool at least. So something from Yu gets out there.

Don' t know, too worried about my job and the way I have been demonised for Shenmue.

Yeah...that was quite harsh (both Yu and Adam got demonized for Shenmue stuff though ;) )... I suppose so many people are irritated by the fact that nothing happens or gets said about Shenmue now. Not officially from Sega themselves at least. Except for Shenmue Online then of course.

In reply to Adam Doree:

First of all thanks a lot for your reply to my request " Mr.Adam Doree" .

At least we can live with some of your answers until you can do a real new
interview with Yu Suzuki,We really want to know that will Shenmue Online
release for US,Europe & Japan? We really want to know that does he have
any new surprise for this e3 and ...so many other things....

" believe me, there can be a huge demand for a new YS interview!,"

BTW can I have 2 more questions from YU!, LOL!

1-Will he develop a new F.R.E.E game for Sega?
I mean a real new franchise!!! with F.R.E.E genre!!!

2-Is he happy when he sees Space Harrier on
Wii' s virtual console for 800 points?, lol!
