G'day passionate Gamers,
Ok here goes the introduction about me I purchased my 3DO FZ-10 new for me and my two sons. Not too long after that PlayStation took their attention but Dad kept having fun with 3DO

I have 34 games and one console so am a small time collector and have not bought anything in over ten years except a wireless controller. But my gem is the holy grail a HAS 3DO Steering Wheel in orig. box ! I bought it used from an adult about 1998. Have the orig. box, plastic wrap and the wheel all in very excellent condition. Probably have less than 50 hours of use on wheel. The original owner said he used it very little ( odd but it was pristine when I purchased it) Only thing missing is the owner manual
I also have a reasonable Atari 2600 collection 3 consoles, 121 games , Tons of controllers, Starpath Supercharger and 7 cassette tape games. My greatest passion is restoring , driving and racing muscle cars and sports cars since 16 the year 1972 HeyDay of HEMI's, Big Block 454's and Ford's Cobra Jets. Current daily driver is the Australian built Pontiac GTO pushing 640 HP and running 11.1 seconds in the 1/4 mile

Oh Yeah its modified running a several stage Nitrous Oxide Injection system. The past 5 years I have become addicted ( DANGER DANGER WILL ROBINSON) to collecting Cassette Tape Walkman GO ANALOG !! I currently have well over 400 players from 64 manufactures. I listen to them daily WOOHOO

Just love the looks I get in public when I take out a "CASSETTE TAPE ... GASP" and put new one in. By the way the very best pro models kick the sonic ASS off a IPOD !!! And with dbx encoded tapes ( RARE system now) no tape hiss at all !!
Recently pulled my boxes of 3DO out of closet and enjoying being bad at everything again HA HA time is a terrible enemy now my reflexes are slower and memory forgotten most of what I knew about the game play. DOG... guess old age and treachery is not going to over come youth and skill this time LOL

Well never to old to learn again. Great to find you guys and gals.
I will do a post shortly on just the steering wheel and another on my very very modest collection showing games and controllers. I am most certainly a lover of vintage things... geesh my most recent bug now is BOOMBOXES of the 80's... DAMN they take up a LOT more space than Walkman grin.. Good thing am divorced a decade now just having FUN.
Here is Link to my BOXED 3DO H.A.S. STEERING WHEEL topic including VIDEO of wheel being used on Need For Speed.
