That's Shadowrun currency?

New yen, not sure why I never tried to pronounce the g, I guess it just seem too hard or dumb to me. *does research* ah I looked it up and it is spelled Nuyen unless the SNES version spelt it differently for some reason.

How is it pronounced then? The goal is to get close, not exactly like a native speaker

I have heard both "Win" when watching Scotty Nguyen on World Poker Tour, and "New Yen" in regards to model Tila Nguyen.

Ng-w-yen

Where the Ng is like the -ng sound from "sing." It's awkward to transcribe since that particular sound never occurs at the beginning of words like that in English.
