it's amazing how fast they added to the added details to the characters and textures. That doesn't look like Lan Di at all. He and Ren look like they're in transition from their Saturn to Dreamcast models. Amazing how far they went in such little time.
I remember seeing this on a dutch tv game show before dreamcast was even released. I knew then and there that I wanted a dreamcast and got one at launch. shenmue is the greatest game of all time
Oh wow, I haven't seen this since the Walden Software days. I remember that store running this video alot when they started taking preorders for the Dreamcast in the Spring of 99
If they showed 1&2 together that way, do you think they had 3 already pre made that way too? Such a shame so many years had to pass. Truthfully I'd rather it had that gen graphics and audio, but had been out all these years. They could have re released all 3 now with improvements.
Great video. This also appeared on the PC movie disc that came with the first issue of the Official Dreamcast Magazine. I imagine they're probably the same discs save the packaging.
when i saw this trailer for the first time i was 13years old and for a few moments i thought i was seeing a movie and not a game. oh god shenmue is really beyond our world a masterpiece
Ah thank you so much, for both the trailer and the song to go with it, hope it wasn't too much trouble, Hopefully more shenmue fans will come across this trailer, we really are addicted to beta videos such as these! =P
Was this song actually included on this trailer?, or was it just added for this upload?... Either way I can't stop listening to this song and I don't know why... I would love to know the name of it tbh...
Yes, the song is part of the original trailer. I didn't edit this video before I uploaded it onto UA-cam. Unfortunately, the CD doesn't give any credits, so I have no idea what this song's title is. I haven't seen this song anywhere else but from this trailer, which makes me guess that this song was solely made by AM2 for this trailer.
The Dreamcast could actually do HD graphics,You just need the VGA box (sold seperately) and it unlocks the secret proper HD resolution scan,works with all Dreamcast games,(especially well with NTSC JAP & USA versions of Dreamcast games),So the Dreamcast was even more ahead of Its time than some people realize. The first ever HD console:Dreamcast.
I know I'll draw hate. Shenmue was unique on it. look at Skies of Arcadia segabits.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/02/SkiesSunset.jpg Not bad, even great, but nothing outstanding like Shenmue. No audio for chars. Combat is OK, but FFX killed it on every point. I can compare many others that way. Shenmue is a work of art, unrecognized at the time. SEGA actually blamed it for bankruptcy. I'd say it was one of the things that could have saved it. And if not given to the damned Xbox for 2, but instead the 3rd developed on other systems, plural, would have made them profits. Just my opinions.

This is actually my favorite Shenmue trailer.

I still have the disc bundled with this trailer lol
And it's now 2019, and we are finally getting a part 3.
It's crazy, ain't it? :p
Oh wow, I haven't seen this since the Walden Software days. I remember that store running this video alot when they started taking preorders for the Dreamcast in the Spring of 99
wow! I remember this trailer! I don't where I saw it but man, does that bring back memories! Love the Shenmue games!
i could see some reflective water.. not used in the final version, ren does looks like kinda of different and lan di look really different..

When you watch this, you realise just how much they cut out of/changed in Shenmue 2.
Anyone know the name of the song?
today i got myself a dc on ebay including this and some other games
i really look forward playing this game
looks marvellous
when i saw this trailer for the first time i was 13years old and for a few moments i thought i was seeing a movie and not a game.
oh god shenmue is really beyond our world
a masterpiece
I have this song for download if anyone wants it.
Ah thank you so much, for both the trailer and the song to go with it, hope it wasn't too much trouble, Hopefully more shenmue fans will come across this trailer, we really are addicted to beta videos such as these! =P
Wow, an interesting trailer. The graphic seems to be slightly different from the final game.
The MP3 link isnt working :\

Ah that's too bad but at least I can come back and watch this video anytime if I want to listen to it lol.
Do you still have the MP3 or it's only a conversion in audio? Your URL is dead.
I bet Richard Jacques composed the track
This game cost so, so much to develop it's crazy. Sadly, they didnt make the money then actually spent on it.

focus on Lan di's Face, its not the same exacly, especialy his nose.
what a fucking banger. would love the name for it. cheers shenmue fans
it seems they were working on a US release of Shenmue 2..
Maybe they only showed the best parts of the series =D (shenmue 2)
now, i waiting for Shenmue4
Everyone should buy the Dreamcast VGA box,the Dreamcast games look miles way better.

i think i know why the shenmue game cost alot, becuase they made both shemue 1 and 2 at the same time, this is why it cost so much
Definatly, could I get a copy please? =)
Almost had 3 as 2.
The Dreamcast was slick. Too bad it failed...
