Status: offline 		gmenfan, is it a good sign that this product is almost sold out? In other words, does this mean it meets/exceeds your sales goal? As a big matrix and Megacampaign fan, I'd be very happy to hear that your MCs are doing well financially, especially since earlier in the forum there were mentions that MCs are not sell as well as hoped.

However, I now have a problem of buying this MC. I have LV right now and am planning to buy MCNA and MCWT both at the same time. After reading this message I checked the matrix store and the Chips & Bits website (I live in the U.S.), and sure enough it's sold out in both places. So, what is my best option to purchase both CDs now, with reasonable shipping expense? Or are there any stores in Dallas, Texas area that have MCs on shelf?

Thanks.

Status: offline 		Unfortunately MCNA appears to be sold old on every vendor website that I can actually read, but I'm still looking. This is a good thing, and good news for Matrix, WT and LV are also big sellers but are still available almost everywhere.

Status: offline 		I too fail to understand why Matrix doesn't have the MCNA game available to purchase on-line as a download. Granted, the footprint is large (if you converted your .wav files to .mp3's you wouldn't have this problem either!), but if people are willing to pay and download, then go for it.

Why wouldn't you try to make the most cash from a product that is possible???

BTW, i loved it.
