Count Binface threatens to nationalize Sega if it doesn't come across with a Shenmue 4 update

LONDON, ENGLAND - MAY 4: London mayoral candidate Count Binface reacts after the results were announced in the London mayoral election at City Hall on May 4, 2024 in London, England.

Famed British political figure Count Binface has issued a public demand to Sega to quit horsing around and finish Shenmue 4, and suggested the company may be nationalized by the UK government if it doesn't move with sufficient haste.

For those not in the know, Count Binface is not an entirely serious political figure: He's really more akin to Darth Vader with a giant trash can for a helmet, whose policies include things like banning loud snacks from movie theaters, a price cap of £1 on croissants, nationalizing Adele, and "the hand dryer in the gents' toilet at the Crown & Treaty, Uxbridge, to be moved to a more sensible position."
