Nintendo DSi on the way «©NCSX» The first batch of Nintendo DSi units have shipped from Japan as of last night but they didn't arrive today. We expect to process and ship the first batch of NDSi preorders on Monday of next week. All remaining preorders should be fulfilled by Thursday of next week and NCS will be able to clear out everyone's reservation and/or new order. Pricing as of last night remains JPY26,500 per unit from our Japanese vendors. Our Hong Kong suppliers have priced their supply slightly higher but as mentioned earlier in the week, we fully expect prices to drop by mid-late November. There's available supply in the marketplace but vendors are pricing their inventory at lofty levels at the moment.

Pikmin Plushes released «©NCSX» Sanei debuted the highly anticipated Pikmin Plush Toys in Japan yesterday and our shipments have been sent. We should receive the cartons by Wednesday or Thursday of next week. Due to the large quantity of preorders in our system for the Pikmin plushes, we'll contact customers today and start preparing orders for dispatch in the next few days.

NDS Valkyrie Profile and Avalon Code «©NCSX» Both Japanese Nintendo DS games were released last night and we'll receive them on Monday. All preorders will ship upon arrival.
