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
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.
