I made Shenmue PC box that never existed — looking for honest feedback
Shenmue was never released on PC for Windows 98, but there were rumors back in the day when I was a kid without a Dreamcast (and my parents were clear: ‘No way we are getting one’). Luckily, I got to play it through a close friend; and boy was Shenmue ahead of its time!
So years later, I decided to make the box anyway -> not a game, no software. Just a physical object that reimagines what the PC release could have looked like.
Every element was designed and assembled by me, from the cover illustration, to the box inserts, CDs, and items. I only created 10 boxes.
I've been working on this for about 6 months and I'd love honest feedback from the Shenmue community, people who actually know this game.
- Does it feel right? What feels out of place?
- Do you get why it exist?
Some have told me there was no point making this. I still disagree, and I think there are others out there who would feel like I do.

By the way, this is a fan-project. No software included.
