Overnight, an old and staunch Sega ally announced the dates for five new Dreamcast
imports slated for the month of June. Eldorado Gate Vol. 5 ships
on June 6, Capcom vs SNK 2000 Pro and Heavy Metal
Geomatrix are ready to go on June 14, Gaia Master and
Net Gimmick Capcom & Psikyo All Stars arrive on
June 28.
Joe Higashi and Dan Hibiki join the original cast
of Capcom vs SNK in 2000 Pro while a smattering of Capcom and
Psikyo characters (Sengoku Blade babes) play a casual game of net capable mahjong in
Net Gimmick. Pre-orders are welcome by e-mail request or online.
All products have been added to the store site this morning
for new reservations.

Capcom
vs SNK 2000 Pro carries a price of Y3800 or US$39 from NCS and
Heavy Metal Geomatrix covers the 3-D death match genre with
characters designed by Simon Bisley, an artist from the Heavy
Metal print magazine. Bisley did the DC Lobo comic a couple of
years back and his style shows in the game.

NCS' GBA product listing has broken up into three different
entries on our shop. First, a GBA with one game is now priced
at US$175, two games at US$225, and three games stand at the
original price of US$275. The GBA version of Dracula continues
to confound and is pending restock but we will update everyone
on our waiting list once we receive notification that it is
shipping.

Nintendo's Pink GBA sashays into the market next week and we
expect the Pokemon GBA later this week. Customers will be
contacted once available. |

consoles, PS2 remote control, Klonoa 2, and a number of other
items in demand.

Dreamcast Magazine enticed readers a couple of months ago with
a sample from the Sakura Taisen 3 trading card collection. Only a small part of the
ST3 licensing barrage,
ST3 trading cards invade the Japanese market this week. NCS
expects delivery of our own order of the trading card packs
starting next week. According to vendor information, eight
glossy cards are packaged per packet at Y300 each or roughly
US$3.75 from NCS.

A collection of Sakura Taisen 3 dolls are on the way from
manufacturer Kotobukiya and we'll post photos of each figure
once product details and pricing are made
available.
|
| Solicitations
for pillows, mugs, pens, and other assorted Sakura 3 products
are being shoved our way weekly but we'll likely pass on some
of the more mundane products. Specialty items would be more
appealing but two of the more special products were already
included in the limited editions of Sakura Taisen
3.

The remainder of the restock was mostly sold over the weekend
when we posted the games online. There should be some products
still available including Good Island Cafe, Johnny Bazooka,
Jewel Bem Hunter, Jajamaru Ninja-kun, Fantastic Pinball, etc.
Surprisingly, Saturn games continue to sell very well and
we'll seek out additional stock over the next couple of
days.

Re-design of the website pushes forward this week and there may
be outages over the next couple of days but they should only
last for minutes each. |
