Stock |
| Japanese
Dreamcast consoles (US$355) and Asian Dreamcasts (US$305)
have been restocked today. The elusive Sonic Adventure
is also in stock again and will ship to reservations by the early afternoon. Today's
shipment should signify the beginning of constant DC supplies in our inventory. New
shipments will arrive every 03 days after this point so we should be able to fill new
orders as they come in. We will also ramp up sourcing for the console from multiple
vendors who can supply large quantities at a fair price. All DC pre-orders on hand will
ship today. Dreamcast racing wheels and joysticks, along with the other DC accessories are
in stock. |

| Final
Fantasy Collection |
|
There may be a shortage of Square's Final Fantasy Collection on March 11. Some vendors are
being cut down to only 10% of their original orders. NCS provides this information to let
our customers know the situation with this title but we also wonder why Square even
bothers to take pre-orders if situations like this are allowed to happen. |

| Yen
Equilibrium |
| The
dollar remains below Y120 as the effects of Japanese official talk fade. We are still
bullish on dollar/yen and wait for the next round of chatter to ignite a dollar surge. |

Last Blade 2 USA |
| The
American version of Last Blade 2 is in stock today at US$60. |
|
|
| Special
Sega Offers |
| The
items listed on Friday's
update are now in stock and available for shipping. There is one correction to
make concerning the Nomad. Contrary to information from our supplier, the unit does not
include the rechargeable battery pack. Reservations received over the weekend will be
confirmed later today. New orders may be submitted to NCS. |

| Virtua
Stick II and Twinstick |
| The
Saturn Virtua Stick 2 (single player) has been restocked today at US$39.
The Virtua On Twinstick has also been brought back in at US$39. The VS2 is
the later version of the Virtua Stick and features a heavy, durable base and buttons that
are lined across the front of the unit. |

| SPX
bounced nicely off 1228 in the last session and stands at 1233. This can be viewed as
bullish since 1228 was not broken and held firm in the face of selling and uncertainty.
The problem is the poor sentiment that is out there caused by the selling into strength
that we have seen in the past week. Every bull run is dumped into and every surge is a
selling opportunity. Nasty action but great for bears. |
