I think theres a possibility of Shenmue coming to the cube, just a very small one. Shenmue is one of my favorite games, and it's the only thing making me want an X-BOX. I'd like to see it come to Gamecube, but at the moment. I think it's probably just wishful thinking. For a start, the creater stated in an interview that Shenmue was specifically made for Dreamcast, getting out all the power of the system (if you've seen how good Shenmue 1&2 you'll know what i mean). So it will take a very long time to make Shenmue 2 for another system (which is one of the reasons Shenmue 2 is taking a long time to come to X-BOX). It'll take more work to make it for anyother systems. Also, the game is HUGE, it may not take 100 hours to complete. But theres certainly a lot of attention to detail, especilly on disc 4. With hugh lush mountain back drops, and you only see for 10 minutes. So i can't see it being made for another console any time soon.
