Shenmue Episodes

To mark the 25th anniversary of the original Shenmue in the West, KC shares his personal memories of the game and why it's such an amazing and unique experience even today.

Step into the world of Shenmue with Stuart from Shenmusings as we learn more about his blog exploring the legacy, lore, and lasting impact of this iconic SEGA series.

Nine months after part 1, the team (KC, SkillJim, Lime Reversed, and Ravsieg) is back to put this debate to bed. How do we rank SEGA's most iconic franchises? This second part includes a surprise: one additional series handpicked by each of us. Are we wrong? Let us know!

This week, I'm joined by George Kitchen, a well-known figure in the Shenmue community, and the developer of beloved fan game "Dreams of Saturn". George talks about discovering Shenmue, his involvement with the community, and the challenges of creating games without any prior experience. Dreams of Saturn 2.0 is releasing soon.

For this month's LiVE show, we cover the most recent news, address a certain surprise other members of the panel prepared for KC, and discuss our definitely not definitive list of SEGA's most iconic characters.

In what is probably the most controversial episode of The SEGA Lounge to date, KC is joined by SkillJim, Lime, and Ravsieg, to discuss the latest SEGA news as well as rank some of the most popular SEGA series. Friendships will be tested in this longer-than-usual episode. Have a different opinion? Let us know!

Using the fact that the Friday of the release of this episode is the 4th of a month as an excuse, KC invited back on the show Matt Oliver and James Brown, from Shenmue Dojo, to talk Shenmue! A lively discussion about the importance of the series to each of us, the invaluable contribution of the community in keeping the franchise alive, and what we all hope to see in a future game. Oh, and our "dream" cast for a potential live action film. #LetsGetShenmue4

Five years after his last appearance on the show, Adam Sipione returns to The SEGA Lounge to discuss the arduous journey (pun intended) involved in completing his documentary about Shenmue. A Gamer's Journey: The Definitive History of Shenmue is a love letter to Yu Suzuki's series, and we get to know more about the process of putting it together.

What do you get when you ask James and Matt of Shenmue Dojo to ask about their favorite summer game? An episode about Shenmue, of course! Listen in to find out all the reasons why Yu Suzuki's classic is perfect for any season.

This week's guest is the amazingly talented Eric Kelso, best known by SEGA fans for being the voice of Jacky Bryant from Virtua Fighter and the original voice of Fuku-san, Guizhang and Ren from Shenmue. Keep listening to find out more about his work as a voice actor, his life in Japan and Shenmue.

This week, I’m joined on The SEGA Lounge by Riku Rose, chairman of The Tojo Dojo, a recent but great resource for all your Yakuza and Shenmue needs. Created earlier this year, it’s grown in support on social media and has been sharing memes and news related to, mostly, the Yakuza franchise. It was really nice to get to know Riku Rose and put his love for SEGA to the test in another hard as nails challenge.

This week, I'm incredibly honored to be joined by the current co-owners of Shenmue Dojo, the most prominent online resource for Shenmue news, info and more, and also the most active community. The Dojo turned 20 years old earlier this month, which is in and of itself an achievement, but when you add to that the importance of its community (and others, of course) to the evolution of the Shenmue series, it's an even bigger deal. I've had the pleasure of sitting down with James Brown, aka SkillJim, and Matt Oliver, and what follows is a longer than usual episode of The SEGA Lounge, but also one that was certainly a pleasure to record as it's not very often that I get to have fellow Shenmue enthusiasts on the show. They also address the ongoing, yet already funded, Kickstarter project for Shenmue World, a fanmade magazine focused on Shenmue. I hope you enjoy listening to this as much as I enjoyed recording it.

Another returning guest joins KC this week, as he sits down with Cédric Biscay, president and CEO of Shibuya Productions, and discusses Shenmue III in a very candid interview with the co-producer of the game.

The SEGA Lounge is back with a handful of episodes to air throughout the coming months. For the first one, learn more about "A Gamer's Journey: The Definitive History of Shenmue", a Kickstarter-funded documentary about the beloved SEGA series. We talk to Adam Sipione, the mastermind behind it all and give him a hard time (or not so much) in a Shenmue-themed quiz.

Welcome back to The SEGA Lounge! This week, since we didn't want to leave you without a news update and Memories of SEGA, we rerun our interview with Shenmue voice actor Corey Marshall, originally aired on November 6th, 2014. Enjoy!

As the Shenmue III Kickstarter reaches its final hours, we welcome Cédric Biscay, co-producer of the game, to The SEGA Lounge. Find out more about his involvement with the project and why he's so sure Shenmue III will be such an amazing experience.Be sure to pledge to the Kickstarter project: http://bit.ly/saveshenmueCheck out the MAGIC event website: http://www.magic-ip.com

As the hype for Shenmue III keeps building up, KC is joined this week by the lovely Lisle Wilkerson, the voice of such iconic Shenmue II characters as Joy, Xiuying and Yuan. Also known for being Sarah Bryant, from Virtua Fighter, and Gena, from Crazy Taxi, listen as she discuss some of her past and her feelings for the Shenmue community... I mean, "Shenmunity".
