Datacenter should be back up tomorrow

Based on information from the colocation center, power should be restored by tomorrow and the servers in their building should be back up on Friday. This week's import shipments containing PS3 Tales of Xillia 2 and PS3 Okami HD are scheduled to arrive tomorrow and preorders will ship on Friday afternoon.

Datacenter still down, UPS working

The datacenter that colocates our ncsx.com server in Battery Park is still flooded but things appear to slowly be getting back to normal. We anticipate they'll be back online tomorrow. Our shop at www.shopncsx.com is hosted elsewhere so it wasn't affected by the outage. JFK airport has re-opened although Laguardia is still closed because of extensive flooding and damage. This week's import shipments should arrive on time (Thursday/Friday) since the flights are routed through JFK. Photo credit: kaitstalyn

Datacenter down, UPS down

The data center in downtown Manhattan's Battery Park where our server is located was affected by the Con Edison power shutdown last night so www.ncsx.com is down. There's no timetable as to when power will be restored but we're guessing Thursday.

Please note that UPS is not operating in our area today and the Postal Service is also shut down so packages will probably go out on Wednesday. Photo credit: jesseanggreg

NEWS Hurricane Sandy

NCS Product Synopsis
 «©NCSX» We're in the offices today but depending on how the day goes, we'll probably have to shut down early if the lights go out. Mass transit in New York City has been shut down and schools are closed. UPS and the USPS might also shut down early in the afternoon so all of their people are off the roads as the hurricane nears NYC. Due to the expected shut downs, NCS expects shipments for orders placed over the weekend to go out on Tuesday.

TOY Okami ZekkeiBan Snow Globe (e-Capcom) - Import Preorder

NCS Product Synopsis
  «©NCSX» Reservations are welcome for the Okami ZekkeiBan Snow Globe which is sold exclusively by e-Capcom in Japan. It looks pretty and charming but the price at JPY6,800 before vendor handling and shipping charges from Tokyo is dear, considering you can pick up snow globes at Big Lots for about $1.50. If you have a coupon, the price at Big Lots goes down to $1.05.

    We've requested a few of the Okami snow globes through agents in Japan and preorders are welcome at US$129.90 each. Please note that Capcom will ship the globes sometime in February 2013 due to production issues which is delayed from the original November 1, 2012 ship date.

    Q: Hold up, $129.90 for a damn snow globe?
