National Console Support, Inc
N   We have two special offers today for the Sega Saturn. Both involve the special controllers that Sega has released in the past for their flagship home console:
Special Offer #1 SATURN Virtua On & Twinstick $59
Special Offer #1 Component   The Japanese version of Virtua On and the Saturn Twinstick are bundled together at a special NCS price of US$59.00. Virtua On is a fast paced mech fighting game which is an admirable port of the popular Sega arcade game. The addition of the Twinstick completes the experience and pretty much brings the arcade home. We're aware that a lot of our customers have purchased the set already (last year) but this special offer should bring new Virtua On fans into the twinstick fold. If Sega should ever release Virtua On 2 to the arcades and eventually to the home, you'll be ready with the twinstick by your side. The fact that you got it all at a discount should at least bring a sheepish grin to your face.
 
Special Offer #2 SATURN Daytona CCE & Steering Wheel $80
Special Offer #2 Component   Japanese Daytona USA Circuit Edition came out a couple of months after the USA version. Some differences: X-Band and SegaSaturn Network support (albeit only in Japan so far), less clipping and a cool little jewel case. Those mega plastic cases that the USA stock ships in is not only unsightly but also takes up a lot of space. The white Japanese steering wheel also looks cooler than the scarce American version. NCS gives you the chance to get both of these items at a reasonable price. Orders and/or reservations may be e-mailed to ncs@escape.com. Both Special Offers are in stock and ready for shipping today.
 
We took delivery of this Final Fantasy VII strategy and map guide a couple of days ago but totally forgot about it. We would like to sell some of the copies that we have sourced however so we're posting it up on a journal entry. The book is about 140 pages and frankly looks and feels like an issue of Gamefan. The publisher is Versus Books which proudly proclaims the book as "Completely Unauthorized". I am not sure how one would interpret that but I'm sure the rebels out there would prefer unauthorized stuff as opposed to plain-jane authorized product. The cover price is $9.99 but we are selling these at US$8.00. On a related note, the American version of Final Fantasy VII is available at US$49.00. On a tangent, the Japanese version of Final Fantasy Tactics is currently in stock at US$68. If we have any other Final Fantasy product to offer, we'll be sure to post it here. Final Fantasy VII Unauthorized US$8.00
