• NCSX is having problems

    I just got off the phone with the people at NCSX. They still have not recieved copies of Blue Burst Episode 4 yet. After this long, I've had enough and have removed my order from them. If anyone else would like to do the same, there are other options still as to whom one can import from. Play-Asia, which I'm not sure of, and also Himeya, which I do understand has sent copies out.

    Update: I took a little scan at NCSX and saw this little note. Preorders for the Japanese PC import Phantasy Star Online Blue Burst Ep. 4 ship automatically on February TBA, 2005. Please note that our supplier in Japan has not shipped the game yet for unknown reasons although the game has been released already and we are now waiting for arrival. Anyone who still hasn't jumped ship may want to do so now.

      When I spoke with them today, the conversation basically went "When are you in getting them?" "Our distributer is delaying sending it, we don't know why. We have no idea when it'll come in"

      "Ok, take me off the list."

      I'd wait it doesnt bother me. It just hypens it up more for me being a loyal Phantasy Star fan.

      For me, I couldn't wait anymore. I couldn't keep delaying the next issue of Phantasy Star Monthly. I've probably lost February already...

      Play-Asia should be relatively quick. I got an email from them early last week telling me my copy had shipped out. (I haven't received it yet, but that's because I didn't rush the shipping.)

      But if it's unclear as to when the other vendor's are getting their shipments in, then I think you've just slowed the process down even more.

      NCSX usually ships pretty quickly, you probably wouldn't be waiting much longer. Now you've got to place a reorder with someone else and wait on that.

      Patience is a virtue.

      12 days late after release? Unacceptable.

      This is why I usually stick with therage.com, I was up and going on Episode III about 3-4 days after its release when I ordered from them.

      shop.himeya.com shipped the game the day after I placed the order. Play-asia took about 5 days. One lets you determine shipping type (Play asia) while the other takes 7-10 days (himeya). Both work great imo.

      Ya, I just got my tracking number, although there's nothing attached to that yet.

      Its shipping directly from Japan, so give it the time difference. I'm kinda wondering what happened to the airplane though, it doesn't show as my himeya package has made it stateside yet....

      You don't need to order Phantasy Star Online Blue Burst, you can download it legitlly from their official website.

      I'm not known around here, but I'm a Neoseeker known member. I made a guide on how to download, install, config, update and play the PSO BB on our computers.

      Here is the link: http://psobb.com.sapo.pt/

      The site is free of pub, popups and stuff, it's just my 5 cents for this great game. But I wouldn't be able to do it without some guys from GameSpot forums, I just illustrated their guide.

      I bellieve this link and new would be very appreciated from the PSO community in this site. By the way, I'm Morpheus from Neoseeker forums and I'm Portuguese.

      Take care.
