  NEWS General Updates

Gundam G Generation Advance Bundle - Shipping November 27
   Preorders are now open for the SD Gundam G Generation Advance SP bundle which includes a copy of the GBA game and a copper-colored GBA SP marked with a gold Zeon logo on the top lid. Pricing in Japan sits at Y18300 but we expect no vendor discount and a slight premium to be charged by suppliers. As such, NCS starts preorders at US$205 for the bundle today. 
   Preorders are also open for the SD Gundam G Generation Advance game by its lonesome.  The game will match Lord of the Rings Two Towers in rom size at 128 megabits and will feature mecha from Gundam serials such as Gundam 0083, Gundam Seed, Z Gundam, Gundam Wing and even Gundam gaidens from the Saturn and Playstation. The game features 3-D graphics and the tactical battles as seen in countless other Gundam releases. SDGGGA will also ship on November 27.
   We have not finalized details or pricing for the Gundam Gamecube console but we'll post more information in the next few days.
Shikigami no Shiro 2 Official Soundtrack
   A tad late to open preorders for something that will be released next week but reservations are welcome for the Shikigami 2 soundtrack which ships on October 15. The CD runs for 68 minutes over 25 tracks named "Theme of Shikigami," "Whirlwind," "Chaos," "Abyss" and many other one-word titles. The package will include a booklet and trading card which features the cast of the game.
Sonic Heroes - Xbox and Gamecube
   We opened up preorders for the PS2 version of Sonic Heroes about a week ago. Preorders are now welcome for the Xbox and Gamecube versions which also ship on December 18, 2003.
Gran Turismo 4 Prologue & Bundle
   Shipping on December 4, 2003, GT4 Prologue introduces drivers to what to expect when the full version of GT4 ships sometime in 2004. Game modes in GT4 Prologue include Free Run, Time Attack and License Test but only 1 track will be available to run on. Pricing was quoted overnight at Y2980 and NCS expects to peddle the game at US$35.
   In addition to GT4, a Gran Turismo 4 Prologue + Logicool GT Force Pro bundle is open for preorders. The GT Force Pro was shown recently at the Tokyo Game Show and was designed to take advantage of GT4's gaming mechanics and force feedback routines. The wheel also features a 900 degree rotation or 2.5 full revolutions to spin on tricky tracks. Please note that the weight of the wheel is considerable and although the price in Japan for the bundle is Y19800, NCS expects to price the bundle at US$239 to account for overnight Express shipping rates from Japan. With the dollar being pummeled in forex markets daily, we're hoping for a respite from the recent downdraft which affects our buying power.
