don't know whether this is old news but playmore are recalling some of the aes carts to be fixed....whether this is for the sound issues or fatalities not being there,i'm not sure?

I mentioned it above
Just to fix sound issues as far as I know, and so far the recall is Japan only. However a *possibly* great piece of news was posted at the Neo Store:
7/20/04 Samurai Shodown V Special home carts (English & Japanese version) are currently on hold pending a decision from SNK Playmore on how to solve the censorship issue concerning the missing fatalities. A resolution should be available within a few days.
Hopefully they do sort it out... if they do then it shows that they actually do care, although then again we all know they will stand to lose sales if they don't do something about it. I've seen a lot of people who planned to buy it saying that they have decided not to unless the fatality issue gets sorted out.
edit: on another note, you guys do realise SNKP fixing carts will send collectors crazy and create some really high priced SSVS carts? Die hard collectors will scramble to get hold of the unfixed versions so that their collection is "complete", and will buy both a fixed version and the original unmodified version. If all the stock gets sent back to be fixed and most people send their carts back in, then there won't be very many of the original versions left, which will make their price go sky high.
I think it's dumb to get both versions no matter how hardcore a collector you are, but whatever makes you happy I guess
