| NCS imports
and distributes a range of Japanese media and consumer goods outside of video game
software. Some products are only suitable for the local market here in New York City with
it's large Asian population and others are targeted specifically to vendors who peddle
particular products. Weekends should allow NCS to introduce some of these types of
products on our website to test the waters for these niche items. This week, we start off
with a Photo CD featuring the Guardian of the Universe, Gamera. Photo CDs
are fairly common beasts in Japan and Asia and they work with PCs, Macs, Saturns w/
Video-CD card, CD-I machines, and the 3DO. Essentially a collection of images and photos,
Photo CDs never made it into the popular culture of the USA but they flourish in Asia and
Japan. This particular Photo-CD includes 172 photos from the Gamera movie of the same name
and the people and beasts that make up the mythos. Sketches of Gamera and various monsters
are interesting to scope as well. Click here for the scans
of the game CD and some choice photo selections. Price: US$15.00 and
available on-line. |

located DREAMCAST Revive and Cyberangel Mahjong Shangri-la
in Japan and we will restock these two titles by next week. A selection of SATURN Kakyusei,
Yu-No, and Nonomura Byouin no Hitobito is under consideration
but prices are high for these hentai games. More details if we decide to accept vendor
offers from Japan. |
Japanese
publisher Elf has long been a purveyor of sex, anime, and adult subject matter. Their line
of Saturn games are still some of our best sellers. |

sweet. We look for the market to retest and break recent lows within the next two weeks.
It will be wrenching to watch but that will be the time to buy... Friday's move was
furious short covering and genuine buying interest has not returned yet. Ignore what the
pundits are claiming. Cya. |
Rumblings in the Middle East are pure manna for traders. It creates
opportunity by causing fear and panic. More fear, soon. |
