Description of the Issue

Within Shenmue 2 (Europe version), there are a few Yu Suzuki arcade games that you can play: Out Run, Space Harrier...Later in the game on disc 3, there's an After Burner machine:

When starting the After Burner arcade, Shenmue 2 freezes; it never loads After Burner and just sits there. Just a black screen. The other arcade mini games such as Out Run and Space Harrier do work.

Debugging Steps Tested

To reproduce: load the save included in the zip file (vmu_save_A1.bin) on disc 3. Start the game, select Continue, select the top save. Wait for the scene to load, turn Ryo around (down on dpad and press X to start After Burner)

Shenmue2 vmuA1 save.zip

I suspect this might be related to the bug in 'Yu Suzuki Game Works Vol 1' where certain games fail to start (After Burner among others). While Shenmue 2 itself works fine and can be completed, this does prevent you from collecting some collectibles within the game.

Yes, it is likely the same issue as #590 for the same reasons.

Ah,bummer. Thanks for investigating/confirming.

There's also a fourth Yu Suzuki arcade in Shenmue 2; Hang On, found at the end of disc 3 and it plays fine (Hang On is also playable in the first Shenmue). So it's just After Burner II (exclusive to the 2nd game) that refuses to load between the two games.
