| Neo-Geo Real Bout 2: The New Comers is slated for April 29. Both American and Japanese cartridges will be available so please confirm the version that you prefer in the next couple of days. Due to the small quantities that we can order from SNK of America, we may have to limit USA versions of RB2 to 24-36 cartridges only. NCS will be able to source 144 copies (12 cartons) of the Japanese version. Our retail price for RB2 is set at US$249. Over on the Metal Slug 2 front, our final shipment will arrive on Monday and all remaining reservations will be completed. All of the Slug cartridges due next week are Japanese territory versions. | - |
Flipping through the new issue of Saturn Fan, we noticed that April has been a great month
for Saturn owners. Four games were rated highly by the magazine.

Travel back with NCS to 1996. Back when Vampire Hunter just shipped and fever was in the air for all things Vampire. Back when the Saturn was still a viable contender in the USA. Back to the days when Anita still followed Donovan. VH is still a great game and we figured that new inductees to the Saturn Vampire fold might want to check out the action before Saviour. That, and the fact that we still have about a hundred copies in back-stock. NCS has sold more VH than any other game in our company's history but we were also stuck with roughly 200 copies over the past year that we've whittled down to the current quantity. Price: $25. |
| Speaking of 1996, Sega re-released a micro-batch of the Sakura Taisen Limited Box a third time last week. This limited box contains the original Sakura Taisen game, a mouse pad and a Saturn mouse. NCS was able to reserve a few copies which we expect to take delivery next week. The limited box is something of a collector's item that has been snapped up by Sakura fans in Japan and the USA. Last year, when Sega issued a second release of the limited edition, NCS was able to source good quantities of the box which we sold at $115 each. This year, the price comes down a bit at $105 for the set. NCS can only allocate 4 limited boxes to retail at this time. Please reserve if interested. |

NCS is expecting another large
restock shipment next week. Many of the games are requests from customers while others are
just recent titles that we want to take a look at. Feel free to reserve any of the
following for shipping next Monday or Tuesday.
