Well first we have an article showing that Yu Suzuki is thinking about crowdfunding Shenmue III! It's a good idea, but do you think there are still enough fans to fund the game or even enough fans from when it came out??? Idk about that... My guess is it'd have to take hard dedication and non fans to be interested.

Second we have an article showing Yu Suzuki with Mark Cerny(worked with Sega for Sonic the Hedgehog and Sony on Crash Bandicoot, Spyro, Ratchet & Clank, Jak & Daxter, and the upcoming PS4 game Knack) and apparently they are talking strategy for Shenmue III. Perhaps they'll work out a deal to get Sony to fund the game? It's not outlandish, they did fund Quantic Dream's Heavy Rain when no other publishers were willing to take the risk on such a non-traditional game.
