Yet, as is often the case with the sometimes inexplicable events that occur within the video games business, nostalgia made for a powerful ally in Shaq’s quest to get a new Shaq-Fu game released.
The original Shaq-Fu was recently spoofed on the ABC Family sitcom Fresh Off The Boat. Its IndieGogo campaign met its $450K United States dollars minimum and with that, developer Big Deez is being given a chance to undo the problems that lead to the games original 1994 flop.
