New to the forums, but not to the system

I bought a Panasonic FZ-10 as soon as Gex became the pack-in, and the price became comparable to all the other systems on the market at the time. Of course I also bought Need For Speed and Road Rash at the same time, along with an extra controller. Somewhere along the way, I figured out that the Panasonic controllers are crap, but the Goldstar controllers rock! So I now use the Goldstar controllers, which actually look more like they were made for use with the FZ-10 than the Panasonic controllers do. Anyhow, I now own about half of the US releases, and I still love my 3DO!

So do i, mostly because my hands spent 9 years using a Genesis controller and they are pretty much the same thing and they just feel better in my large hands :wink:

So are you going for all the US games or just the ones you think you might like?

I used Panasonic controllers until I ditched my original FZ10 in 97. But then I bought a Goldstar new in box in 1999, although I have some Panasonic controllers, I never use them. They kinda suck IMHO. Wow... has it been that long... :?

The only games I'm trying to find right now are sealed copies of the US versions of Mazer & Phoenix 3. I already have just about everything else I want. I bought all my other games when they were still sold in stores, but I never got around to getting those two before they all disappeared.
