I love the pal Jewel cases! Some of the art is far superior to the long boxes we'd get in the states.

Awesome 3DOKid! I was hoping to one day take a look at your stash. Your magazine lot looks pretty minty too.

Thanks mighty high-praise-indeed from you
The Magazines are pretty good. You have to read them from issue 13 down to issue 1, because otherwise it's just too depressing.
C'mon folks - show us you gear !

7th pic down, low left hand corner, I want this game complete for the case! Plus did the cover of Digital Dreamware remind anyone else of (the arcade game) I, ROBOT?

I don't even consider this a collection or consider myself a collector. I got all this stuff used probably from ebay except Star Fighter. I was able to snag a new copy of that from some liquidation site. I have the long box elsewhere. I also have the oldergames discs but I feel ashamed to have that collection of CDRs
even though I have copy 10/50 of the decathalon disc, it doesn't even mean anything really. They prolly just burned up a whole pile more of them. Ok I'm going off topic here, this is is all I have.

Cool. Thank you
I recently got hold of Atlanta Summer games
I take it you NFS isn't strictly kosha?
I thought Dragons Lore came on 3 discs? Mine does... i think.

ok I pruned a bunch of posts with us just babbling on, and to satisfy some of those posts requests I bring you um... boxes.
Black folder is a 200 disc and he blue one is a 60. I found a longbox for Imercenary after I took the photos.
Memory unit on the very top
(on a Saturn box), the white box on the bottom with Jap text contains a Sanyo 3DO.
Thought I'd give you a quick shot through the door of what will become my game room, I didn't feel the need to shoot the rest as it's mostly boxes full of stuff you can't see.

Finally, thank you for sharing 3DO Experience
Can't wait to see what's in the boxes.

Well I did more work on the room and there is grave news, the majority of longboxes were ruined. I had a leak in another room this winter and I thought they were safe but they are soaked and covered in mold. So the only longboxes I have left are the ones I already had out. Those in the photo and Imercenary & CPU Bach are the only remains.... *sobs* but on the bright side I had pulled the games out of them already.
Even some of my Nintendo boxes got damaged.
*runs away to cry*

Space Hulk is safe (thank the 3DO gods) my Road Rash box became mush along with the manual, the others I never had the long boxes to.

Well I just started mine up again last week so all I have is the following.
All the games except Myst and Wing Commander 3 came with the system in a lot on ebay.
On a side note, I read somewhere that the games play better/worse on certain 3DO's. Is that actually true? Are the Panasonic's better than the Goldstar? Is the FZ1 better than the FZ10?

Goldstar unit has been known to have issues w/a few games. Most notable is Space Hulk (close combat has been known to freeze it up) EA offered an exchange option back in the day on that game.
Perhaps a couple others, but I never had any specific issues w/games running on my Goldstar unit ... although its life expectancy does seem shorter than either Panasonic model.
FZ-1 seems to be the unit of choice on this forum.
