Some of these titles
have been requested and others come from what we do every once in a while,
that is, we clear all of the stock of a distributor in Japan and buy
everything they have. Some of the quantities are very large (107 copies of
Dunk Dreams and 70 copies of Samurai Spirits) so resellers are welcome for quantity
discounts. Some other obscure titles are expected which we could not
translate from the distributor's kanji-laden pro-forma but as soon as we receive them, we
will post them up with the rest of the cartridges. |

It's mega pre-order time. Due to
changing market conditions, NCS is now taking pre-orders for the following Saturn products
that are due in November. Only the titles that we consider to be hot are posted here. Many
others (just about everything coming out in Japan) will be sourced by our company but we
do not require pre-orders for those since we get our usual quantities for those
"regular-selling" titles.

| Since we base a lot of our pre-order decisions
with our Japanese suppliers on the literature and information that they send us, we felt
that it would be wise to start giving our customers the same sort of promotional flyers
and pamphlets that we use for our bulk purchasing. That is, on our web page in an on-line
digital format. We'll start doing this on a weekly basis since there is a lot of stuff
coming out in the next couple of weeks and months leading up to the holiday season. This
week, we have three new promotional sheets from three different publishers. Hopefully
they'll be interesting enough to spur market demand.

| A distributor for Hitachi faxed us a
pre-order for a new Saturn accessory last night. The accessory is a Karaoke player which
comes with a karaoke interface, a uni-directional microphone and 5 video-cds of Japanese
songs. The karaoke kit requires a JVC or Sega video-cd card in order to run the enclosed
video-cds as well as any other vcds that are available in the Asian or North American
market. The tentative market price for this item is US$100 for the set. Like the Digio
video camera that came out a week or so ago, we will only order this item if we have
orders for it. Well, I suppose one will make it's way to the NCS storage area for
nostalgia in the next decade. If you are interested in this item, feel free to place a
reservation by mailing ncs@escape.com. |
The availability of Bomberman 64 has
been confirmed for September 29. We are setting the price of this upcoming cartridge at
US$62 and reservations are now being accepted for delivery on Sept. 29. The latest
J-League soccer simulation from Konami will be available on September 22 and it will ship
under the name of Wold Soccer 3. The price for this new cartridge is set at US$70. |
| Thanks to everyone who placed pre-orders for the
Neo-Geo King of Fighters '97 cartridge. We will be able to ship during the week of
September 29. We should have the stock available on 09/29 but SNK shipping schedules are
sometimes off by a day or two. Updates will be posted if there are any shipping
contingencies that will affect the delivery date. Thank you. |
