Dreamcast Imports
Partial shipments made it in yesterday and most orders have been shipped. Note
that further restock of Street Fighter 3 W will not arrive until December 29, when Shenmue
hits the market. NCS has been processing current orders for Virtua On: Oratorio Tangram
and any remaining orders that were submitted in the past two days will be fulfilled on
Monday when our restock arrives. The VOOT Twinstick may be restocked in roughly 3 weeks
but this item is currently completely sold out in Japan and any existing supply has been
priced in the US$85 range which is richer than we can bring them in and sell them for. |

| Capcom's Street
Fighter 3 W for the Dreamcast works perfectly with the swap trick that we
outlined a couple of weeks ago. |

DC Mod Chips
There is no 100% reliable or compatible mod chip available in the marketplace
yet. NCS has not and will not offer any modification service or convertor until the
procedure is more stable that it currently is. Some websites have attributed the sale and
distribution of a DC modchip to NCS. This is untrue and it has always been our assertion
that we will not offer the service until we are confident in the performance of the chip
to load a majority of the Dreamcast software that is available in the marketplace. NCS has
no further comment on the matter but we have not offered the chip for sale to retail
customers yet because we are unsatisfied with it's compatibility. |
