Tekken III, Burning Challenger and Bushido Blade 2 are a couple of recent Shock compatible games. Neverhood, Tail Concerto and Enigma are upcoming Shock games. NCS currently has the grey and white Dual Shocks in stock but are now sold out of the black and charcoal ones. We should have inventory of the blue, turquoise and clear pads sometime next week. The new Dual Shocks come in a clear blister pack backed with a cardboard sheet. The old packaging consisted of a cardboard container with the picture of the Dual Shock in front. NCS retail for the pad is currently US$40.

   NCS will have a large quantity of Neo-Geo MV-4 boards available in roughly two weeks. We have received many requests for this item and we should be able to clear all of the pre-orders on hand when the stock arrives. The MV-4 is a 4 slot Neo-Geo system board that will accept MVS cartridges. A user must have a JAMMA cabinet or a Super Gun system in order to use the MV-4. MVS cartridges are generally more widely available in Japan than regular Neo-Geo cartridges. Price discounts are also more drastic when stock becomes older. The MV-4 board is expected to range between US$250 and US$285, depending on how the freight per unit pans out. Additional pre-orders are welcome. Another Friday, we bid everyone a fine spring weekend.
