the Hedgehog's 10th anniversary lands on June 23, 2001 and
Sega celebrates the decade-long run by releasing a
commemorative edition of Sonic Adventure 2. In addition
to the SA2 game GD, the special edition includes a gold Sonic
engraved coin, a bonus music CD, a Sonic series history
booklet, and nifty blue gatefold packaging. The product will
only be sold in Japanese stores from June 23 (Saturday) to
June 24 (Sunday) but NCS has an inside track on quantity.
Pre-orders are open starting today online
but will close once our allocation is exhausted. Core
Magazine posted a feature on this product yesterday.
Pricing is set at US$65.

A conclusive shipment of Japanese SCPH-18000 PS2 consoles will
be restocked tomorrow after some successful searching with
vendors overseas. Those hoping to pick up a PS2 Linux Kit
will need to also procure an SCPH-18000 console in order to
use the hardware in the kit. Pricing remains at US$450.
Follow-up import shipments of Japanese PS2 consoles will only consist of
new SCPH-30000 models which are designed in the image of the USA
and European versions but carry a lower price of US$390. This
new model stock is now expected within 2 weeks but we'll
update once all SCPH-18000 inventory is gone.
