Until recently multi-standard VCRs were located in the high-end of the
market. I only began to notice it appearing in cheaper models about three
years ago. It depends upon the manufacturer- the VCR i bought last year does
not support NTSC but my parents' three year old model does. Perhaps I could
flash the bios. ;)

You can enable/disable the option on a menu screen.
