Dreamcast No Swap "Trick"
   NCS has received one sample of a modified Asian Dreamcast that includes a multi-territory bios. This allows the unit to boot Japanese and American GDs directly without the use of any swap trick. NCS is unsure if we will offer these consoles for sale but they work fine and eliminate the need for swapping. Our company expects to receive a small quantity of the multi-territory boot roms next week for our own experimentation and trial use. This method differs from what we have been able to do on the DC and may be more efficient in that the procedure does not involve any external or significant internal modification to the DC pcboard.

Roommania #203 Sega
The Aero Dancing Secret Disc was originally a free offer from CRI but this has now changed. This item is offered at Y2980 and features new missions and a free flight & gallery mode. Roommania gives armchair stalkers a chance to peep into a man's room and do various acts of mischief. Hopefully, this won't inspire real world action...
