    This was way cool! What did you use to edit the video? Brought back many good memories of playing the game.

    Nice vidéo, i also went to Yokosuka and Dobuita in 2023 to achieve this teenager dream of mine :). It's nice to visit this district which inspired the game and also to see an authentic japanese neighbourhood not reshaped by mass tourism.
    For future visitors, you should always ask politely if you can take a photo (Shashin o totte mo īdesu ka?) or vidéo (Bideo o totte mo īdesu ka?) ;)

    Love this stuff. I hope to one day make the pilgrimage to the holy land ❤
    I have to chuckle though because there was no doubt a point in time when yokosuka locals thought they were tripping 😂 "who the hell are these random people that keep coming here, wearing the same brown jacket, filming the vending machines and shadow boxing in the parking lot? 😂

    I was just there a few days ago. It was my third time going there. I went there the first time in my 20s, then in my 30s. A lot has changed every time i have visited obviously since its by decades.

    • @DionsTravels
      @DionsTravels  Před 6 měsíci

      Maybe they will add even more parking lots in the next ten years 😁😁😁

    Very, very cool video. I went to Tokyo almost 15 years ago but never went to Yokosuka. You mean to tell me none of the shops had ANY type of Shenmue merchandise?? Makes no sense. Did you eat there? Thanks for making the video with t eh Shenmue effects.

    • @DionsTravels
      @DionsTravels  Před 4 měsíci +2

      yeah I didn't see any merch and yes ate tempura with noodles and saki and sprite, it was great 😃

    I've always wondered: Is Yu Suzuki at least somewhat of a celebrity in Yokosuka? I'm asking because , based on this video, Shenmue 1 seems to be almost 100% accurate to the actual town, including the distance between certain locations such as the dojo, the temple, and the local shops. Plus, given that Shenmue inspired a number of folks to visit this place (ex: the creator of this video, of course) and presumably buy souvenirs from the shops, this game must've done some good for their tourism.
    That's why I was wondering what Yokosuka residents think of this game.

    Is this the video you promised 4 years ago in your 'Bruce Lee's Hong Kong' video, where you said you were waiting for your jacket to get made ? 🙂

    • @DionsTravels
      @DionsTravels  Před rokem +1

      Yes it is, wow has it really been that long? 😅

    surprised you wasnt arrested and deported for filming with a drone in restricted airspace.

    • @DionsTravels
      @DionsTravels  Před 8 měsíci

      it wasn't restricted 🤷‍♂️ glad you enjoyed it

    • @miguelvidal1148
      @miguelvidal1148 Před 5 měsíci

      If the drone is less than 100g you don't need a licence

  • @MrPhlypc
    @MrPhlypc Před 8 měsíci
