question about a 3d0

dirtboy69 · Mar 26, 2003

i would want the first panasonic 3d0 realease. how much do they cost?? and would someone sell me one

I would say for just a system don't pay more than $40 or maybe up to $65 in box minty fresh. The original style ones don't work as well as the top loading ones from my experience.

good luck

i searched on e-bay and it seems that they were in the 30 to 40 dollar range with a far bit of games i hope i can find one for trade

I got mine for £10.........

though it was unboxed and the tool had painted the pad lightgreen with emultion!!!

some dudes just got no idea.

Like they said, £30 - £50 is fair, depending on condition etc...

Shipping is a bitch on this. It was the heaviest ever console pre X Box

is the system really that heavy?? damn never really thought it looked much bigger then a saturn

I would say go for the top loading FZ-10 model. I used to own the Goldstar Motor driven unit and it sucked. After about two years, the motor gave out. If you get a system, make sure to buy Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo.

3DO not 3D0

I would get the original Panasonic unit simply because it was so damn cool.

I paid a grand for one (Canadian) upon its release and was blown away by how well built it was, plus the fact that it had proper A/V ports on it, including S-Video. I also loved the faux-ganite top with embossed Panasonic logo.

On the other hand, I have no intention of buying one again, even for $40.00. There simply weren't enough good games that didn't later appear in better form on other systems. The only game I really missed was Return Fire. I was more pleased and excited than I can express when it was announced and later released for PSX.

They were $600 in the US, I to got one at launch crying but it was a great system. Crash and Burn, Road Rage, Need for Speed, Street Fighter 2, Sam Showdown, etc... great versions of all those games, plus I still think it had the best versions of NFS and Road Rage to this day!

...and hardly any versions on PS/Sat were any better-or even different! :confused:

WING COMMANDER 3,SHOCKWAVE and STARFIGHTER 3000 were actually worse! oh_no

The only game where they at least TRIED was NEED FOR SPEED!
Three times faster,higher resolution and more tracks...but less objects,colors(!?) and no oncoming traffic anymore.
Instead of a simulation ,the PS version was a poor man's RIDGE RACER... oh_no

I even bought a MAS stick for 3DO way-back-when to use for Samurai Shodown and Super Street Fighter 2 Turbo.

Yeah, it was a great system. Man, Road Rash kicked ass! It also has the first 3D version of FIFA soccer.
