A while back I posted a thread about a kickstarter to fund a sequel to the god awful Shaq Fu video game. They reached their goal.
The goal was $450,000.
The end result is $473,884.
That's coming from over 1300 donators.
One person donated $35,000?!?!
If development goes well, expect this game for PC, PS3, PS4, Wii U, Xbox 360, and Xbox One.

I remember seeing Shaq Fu on worst-games-ever list in Nintendo Power magazine.

I didn't know $450,000 could fund a game of that nature (being released for all the modern consoles and PC). It seems to be on the cheap side.

WTF? How...you know what? I bet this was successful purely due to gamers who know of the original wondering if a sequel might be worse....
