No bother. Nibbler.

A whole nother page just for that.

I just did a little test. I have both my computer and 3DO hooked up to the same TV. A 32 inch Panasonic from around 2003. I had FreeDo running NFS fullscreen on input 1 and the 3DO running NFS on input 2. I had them on the exact same screen (the beginning of the race before you shift into 1st) and I...

I just moved here from NV and I lived there for 12 years and only went to Vegas once, and for a school trip. So sorry I won't be much help. I got 'friends' in Vegas I could hook you up with but the problem is they are not the best kind of 'friends'. If 3DO needs any weed or pills I'm sure he will t...

What the F:\ are you talking about!



Geddit? F prompt... I'm hilarious I know

I actually have the original Max Headroom movie on Beta. I'll sell it to you if you are interested.

I'd really like to find a VCD add-on for my Goldstar for a reasonable price, but that is much easier said than done.

I just recently purchased a 3DO and fell in love and just had to find a place to talk about it But I had watched 3DO Kids Top 50 games video a long time before I actually owned a 3DO console. Back then I was watching it to see which games I should try out on Freedo.

My Goldstar unit has S-video output.

If you don't have a 3DO console then FreeDo is a great way to check out some 3DO games. I got lucky and found a 3DO for $5 or else I would still be using FreeDo too.

"NOW THATS MY MAIN MAN! THE GREATEST CO-PILOT TO EVER SHOOT THE TUBES!" oh gawd here i go again. I'd like to shoot her tubes it ya know what I mean *wink *wink *nudge *nudge Give her a little taste of what I like to call my big sweet sixteen. Sixteen shots of seaman for Ms. Falco and friends! But r...

Doesn't seem to be too much love for the Goldstar

3DOKid wrote:The emulator is fine and dandy. I think later releases did away with the need for the ASPI driver. It should just boot a 3DO CD. I used the emulator all the time, but honestly, the real thing is, as Trip would say, "The R.E.A.L thing"

Agreed, the emulator comes nowhere close to the real thing.

Do you mean the remodelled PSOne? It definitely looks like both PS1 models, but in particular the PSOne. But anyway, yeah I think the Goldstar until came first. But then again it would be typical Sony to rip off everyone else's ideas and pass them on as their own :wink: I was referring to the origi...

So it is possible to use a 3DO controller on the Genesis? I assumed it wouldn't work since Genesis won't work on 3DO due power actually traveling through the cable and whatnot. Just curious, I have controllers for my genesis and wouldn't be using a 3DO controller on it, just wondering if it is possi...

He would only need to sell around 2,900 3DOs to make the 20 million. At the original $700 price tag or course.

Maybe he will release the M2 add-on module to raise the money! Then again maybe not...

ok so I downloaded the emulator go the bios set up and now I am trying to configure the controller to work but it does not read any of my inputs does it not support controllers or is there something else I need to download to make it work? I used a program called Joy2Key for Freedo, what it does is...

The last game I have actually beaten was Sewer Shark on 3DO

Anybody? So who ripped off who?

AntiFreak wrote:If anyone had a iso of some of the games pls pm me.
It isnt piracy the games never saw the light of day.

I don't believe ISOs exist for the unreleased games except for Powerslide and some Olympic games.

1982 eh? That was a good year, the birth of Knight Rider!

I would love to see a NES emulator on the 3DO. I wonder what is possible on the 3DO, for example SNES emulation. I wouldn't think so because even the SNES emulator on the Dreamcast wasn't fullspeed

Austin wrote: Really? Maybe it was just me, but by somewhere in Stage 3, I couldn't progress any farther, and I always followed the exact path given to me.

Hmm idk, I know you eventually have to follow a "crazy looking thing" through the sewers. Maybe that is what you are remembering?

Thats why you just run the homebrew emulators, so much easier.

Austin wrote:Well, at least not until later on where the correct coordinates are hacked or something and lead you to a dead end (death), and you have to guess your way through.

I've just recently completed the game and I that never happened.

Has anybody here had there 3DO stop working due to using backups? Does it put THAT much strain on the laser?

Any 3DO console you purchase you will have to buy the Video-CD add-on for the system, and from what I have seen they are not cheap. There are currently two new in the box Video-CD adapters on ebay as of posting this. One for the FZ-1 (199.99) and one for the FZ-10 (169.99) I recently saw the Goldsta...

I just tried Luciennes Quest and at first it seemed like it was going to be pretty good, then I exited the tower. I have only made it from the tower to the first colony, but I plan on going back and putting a little more time into before I decide if I like it or not. So far it seems that there are w...

I just tried the emulator out again after buying a 3DO and I must say it is nowhere close to the same experience playing them on FreeDO as it is playing them on the real console. If you have a way of buying the console I highly recommend you pick one up. Plus it is nice that the 3DO plays burnt game...

FreeDo is much easier to use than the Saturn emulators. Once you have your BIOs file all you need to do is then click File>Load CD then click CPU>Start it should load up fine.
