3DO ZONE Forums

Yup, bizarrely enough, the 3DO entered my dreams the other night. I haven't even had the system hooked up for months now.

In my dream, someone on these boards had unearthed a near-complete beta of an unreleased 3DO game called Ninjakoshi. Yeah, Ninjakoshi, as in "Ninja Koshi" - get it? I don't either.

Anyway, I burned myself a copy of Ninjakoshi (seriously, why the heck does my subconscious come up with a name like that?) and played it for a while before I woke up. It was a 3D open world type game, with polygonal graphics which, surprisingly enough, fit in realistically with the 3DO's limitations. Try picturing Alone in the Dark or Immercenary; Ninjakoshi's polygons were slightly less detailed than that. You play a ninja and the gameplay is your basic action/platforming deal, but with lots of non-linear exploration. I remember that though I wasn't totally enthralled with Ninjakoshi, I was impressed at how innovative it was for its time.

If anyone wants to know, "Koshi" is pronounced "KOH - shee". Yes. I heard the game's name pronounced in my dream.

3DOkid approves of this dream.

A few days ago I dreamed that during a bus trip, stopped at an old bookstore and found stacked in a corner several 3DO games covered in dust. But I was broke in the dream and the bus was leaving never to return. It was a true nightmare.

This is not really a 3do dream but an incidence of 3do memories influencing things. As a kid, Crash n Burn left such an amazing impression on me from a store kiosk, I only got to play it once, but from that memory, over the course of the next year, I would try and draw pictures and even wrote a little story (with illustrations) about a race based on my memories of Crash n Burn. I probably have some of those illustrations tucked away in a box somewhere.

Great. so I had one now. I was playing Need for speed and there was a prius in it. And there was a beach level and everyone was marveling at the tire tracks in the sand. Now can you all please get out of my brain.

...i mainly have boobs in my dreams...

More into ornithology, eh?

Wooo, I'm glad I've never had a dream like that... yet...

I think I had a dream that I found a copy of Lucienne's Quest, some time back.
