Re: Recent 3DO Purchases

Woo got these beauties today. I was a bit burned by Alone in the dark 2 - no manual and cracked case! Sold as 'very good condition'. Absolutely gutted, but i only paid £4 for it, so I'm not too sore over it. The others are in as new condition, with exception to the horde. Really happy with these one...

Re: Recent 3DO Purchases

Unfortunately not :( I have scoured the net for one but they appear to be a rare occurrence. Yes, I remember getting Hell way back in 95 and finding it insanely hard, that said we almost completed it looking at a play through recently. I'll probably stream a play through in the next few weeks. I mig...

Re: Recent 3DO Purchases

Hey guys, Finally got a pic of my month's purchases. I'm just waiting on Snow Job, Dragons Lair and my FZ-10 to arrive. I've decided to get a PVM 20L2 to run my gun games on - I just need to follow up the tech specs of that monitor to ensure the s-video is all good and what cables i might need to su...

50hz tv that's 60 Hz compatible

Hi all,

I'm looking for exactly as the topic title suggests. I'm UK based and I didn't know if anyone used, or could recommend, a 4:3 TV that's compatible with 60Hz.

I wondered what some of the UK users here were using with their NSTC setups.

Cheers.

Re: Game Gun

Hi again all, Apologies to chime in again, just wondering if anyone had any experience with the issue above? If you own a Game Gun, or have any experience with one, any advice would be greatly appreciated. I have never owned the Game Gun before and there's little information on the net. If anyone kn...

Re: Introduce yourself.

Hi Jon, Welcome!

I'm pretty new here myself. But I'll chip in and say, you're absolutely right - the 3DO is a fantastic console to collect for!

Which system model did you go for? Enjoy those titles!

Re: Wii U

I bought a Wii U on release. Being honest, I was a bit disappointed by the initial release, after Nintendo promised a stellar line up and a stream of solid games piped out every month. Then it happened... Developers pulled support and the gaming drought began. A slew of bad press from developers. I'...

Re: Recent 3DO Purchases

I've had a blow out month! Spent way too much. I have time and money to dedicate to my 3DO collection once more after neglecting it to pay off debts, and other life matters. I'm aiming to only collect VGC/as new items where possible. This month I bought the following: Factory Sealed - HELL, Quaranti...

Re: Game Gun

I've decided to pick up an NTSC jap 3DO. My CRT is 50hz though - will that affect anything with regards to the gun game calibration?

This is all providing there's no way the gun game works on pal consoles.

Game Gun

Hi all, I might have made a mistake! I purchased 2 Game guns and nearly all the American Laser Games. Only to find that the guns calibration is waaaaaay off. Is it true all Game Guns are not compatible with pal due to the 50Hz signal? Will I need to purchase NTSC just to use the gun? If so I think t...

Re: Introduce yourself.

Good day one and all, My name is Ash and as you've guessed I'm new to the community here. I may be new to the forum, but I'm certainly no stranger to the 3DO having purchased one way back in the day. I actually purchased the Goldstar too, but could never acquire the TRY. 3DO (FZ-1 model) is my all t...
