Encrypted/Unencrypted Hardware Switch?

Post by jasonbar » Thu Feb 13, 2014 10:05 pm

I thought 3DO discs didn't have region protection, & I thought that the encryption broken a while ago was a software thing for homebrew efforts, & that the 3DO can play CD-Rs as-is...?

What's this mod switch all about?

It's not a mod. it's a developer unit. They could play unsigned discs with the switch set to unencrypted. Kinda pointless now.
