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.
Dreamcast JPN
Berserk ASCII $63
Puyo Puyo Da! SNK $53
Space Channel 5 Hudson $53
Street Fighter 3 W Sony $63

SNK vs Capcom: Match of the Millenium is the fighting version of the game. The cartridge that NCS stocks from Asia is in English, ships in a plastic case with the snap-lid and mini plastic cartridge container inside. The way things should be...

Delays and Others
   Sega have delayed the release of Rainbow Cotton from it's original date of December 22 to January 20, 2000.
   Konami have announced a number of Bemani games for the Playstation and Dreamcast to ship in February. On the Playstation, NCS is now accepting pre-orders for Pop 'n Music 3 Append Disc (Feb. 02) and Guitar Freaks Append 2nd Mix (Feb. 24). Dreamcast owners will also get into the beat with Pop 'n Music 3 Append Disc (Feb. 10), Dance Dance Revolution 2nd Mix (Feb. 17) and Dance Dance Revolution Controller which is the dancing pad.
   SNK Japan have announced SNK Gal's Fighters for the Neo Geo Pocket to ship on January 27 which will feature all of the mightiest amazons from SNK's stable of warriors. No males allowed in this one.
   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.
