Reminder that Shenmue only exists because of Steven Spielberg: "Spielberg toured Sega when he came to Japan on a film promotion tour, I think. He had a game company too, GameWorks. President Nakayama led, and we went round the development floor together." (1/3)

When we showed Spielberg *Virtua Fighter RPG*, still at the prototype stage, he reacted with something like 'Wonderful!'… Nakayama-san was pleased by that and ordered full-scale development." - SUZUKI Hisashi, "Video Game no Kataribe-tachi", pp. 150-151

Was going through my many binders of Sega paperwork for more Virtua Fighter research (shocking.), when I saw this... Hey wait, 1993 is way too early for Sonic the Fighters... Ahh, it's actually an earlier name for SegaSonic Cosmo Fighter. (oh and there's Virtua Fighters at the top.)
