Count Binface Is Making A Campaign Promise That Every Sega Fan Can Get Behind

Count Binface Is Making A Campaign Promise That Every Sega Fan Can Get Behind https://ift.tt/5f24LAn The campaign season is heating up, and by now, you're probably used to politicians making grand promises that won't be fulfilled. Across the pond in England, at least one "independent space warrior" is making a push to get Sega fans on his side, as Count Binface's bid to be elected the new MP of Clacton has seen him call on Sega to reopen its beloved West End Arcade and get Shenmue 4 into production. "I need to say a galactic hello to Sega, on behalf of the Shenmue fans," Count Binface said in a new video that was shared by the fansite Shenmue Dojo.
