NEWS: General Updates 
   Four Japanese PS2 imports have been delayed from their original March ship dates to April. New dates will be posted upon confirmation from publishers: Metal Slug 3, The Pinball Simple 2000 Series, I'm Best ~ Bike Police Simple 2000 Series and Batman Dark Tomorrow.
  Two February PS2 imports have also been delayed from February to March as follows: Time Crisis 2 (Best Collection) now ships on March 06, 2003 and Warrior Blade ~ Rastan vs Barbarian ships on March 27.
   According to suppliers in Japan, the Gameboy Advance SP + FFT bundle mentioned yesterday will only be sold through 7-11 convenience stores in Japan. Due to this special arrangement, our agents would have to "hand-carry" the goods for us if we decide to import the item. Hand-carrying was what we called it in the old days when we sent third parties into Japanese retail shops to help us purchase products that were not available through normal distribution channels. This arrangement carries additional personnel costs as well as paying full retail but we will finalize an offer tomorrow. 
   Newly announced ship dates for two North American games: PS2 Guilty Gear XX [USA] and Galerians: Ash [USA] ship on February 5, 2003.
