2 millions is obviously peanuts. It probably does not even pay for the licensing rights. Sony was hosting the announcement and the game is for PS4 and PC so this means Sony is clearly paying money to ensure PS4 is in and Xbox one out.
The 2 million goal was just there to gage user's interest - i'm pretty sure a game like that would cost a lot more, but this being said they could just license an engine like Unreal instead of having to write everything from scratch like they did in the Saturn / DC era. But they would still need many people to work on the art of the game for like 2 years or so, and that costs a lot.

Do you think XBOX ONE will get it eventually though?

If Sony is paying cash for it, no.

I am not super excited about this, but looking forward to it. It is also about the story for me.
I guess I am the 3rd person using a real Dreamcast that ekianjo mentioned, and I am not a Sega fan. It was one of only 2 of their consoles I wanted back in the day, and I didn't get one until over 10 years after it was released. I don't use it too often since I don't want to kill the drive on it until I have something to replace it with.
Edit: My favorite rewards are the ones with the toys ($120 and $500).

An nVIDIA Shield Android TV console release would be cool too.

More than perfect if it is also on PYRA!I would also love to play it on the Dreamcast, that makes 4 of us
That being said, a PC release is just perfect, especially if it is available on Linux.

So much this, since I plan on using my Pyra for Dreamcast games until I get one of those things to replace the optical drive. I could have all three in one place (and play them wherever I go).More than perfect if it is also on PYRA!I would also love to play it on the Dreamcast, that makes 4 of us

Well, I would also be happy if they port all Shenmue 1, 2, and 3 to the Vita! :wub: :wub: :wub: This could be the game/series to revive the Vita.

I will blame you if they do. I don't have a Vita, and have no plans to get one.

Well, I couldn't overcome my temptation, so I've backed it
Edit: Guess I can stream it to the Vita from my PS4.
