Anyone else have any of these magazines?
I'm curious as to how many issues were printed.
I know that 3DOKid showed a picture of the sampler disks (pictured under the magazines) given with one of the mags.

I believe I said that when you were showing your Nintendo stuff. I'd only put out if I could look at it while you had your way with me. Your 3DO collection is just intimidating.

...the ultimate otaku-girl spake once again.
I think, if I'm honest, even for me, a full SNES collection would be distracting. Especially if there was Stunt Race FX - i've never seen that running. I'm old. And a geek. Clearly

Alright, you convinced me. I will never post another picture of anything from my collection

I would, but I think 3DOKid was speaking for everyone.

If the pics are spaced out it's all good probably ... just need time in between to get over the shock/jealousy/awe etc ... before the next wave hits/

I remember saving up all that money as a kid to buy that game. Great fun it was. Now I cant play it because of the low frame rate

I remember getting everything unlocked. That motorcycle was fast!

I believe there are either 3 or 4 more. Sadly the last one (which I believe you have, I'll when I'm home tonight) is mostly faked up, with poorly drawn images regarding the coming m2. Those that come to mind include one with a large writeup on Autobahn Tokio (including cover and tournament info) and another on Blue Forest Story, with some nice artwork. the BFS one comes in two versions, single cover, and double cover with an extra artwork cover for BFS on it.
If I can ever find spare time, it's on my to-do list to scan those, but free time went to zero and has yet to return.
There's several 3DO mags that were one shots, and Dengenki-Oh which had a decent coverage on the 3DO. More info as requested and time permits.

Cool. Looks like I might have more hunting to do if I can't dredge them up out of the rest of my storage. Would love to see some scans of your mags too.

Nice to see you got a few of the odd ones. Pick up early issues of Dengenki-Oh though, some nice stuff in there on a lot of systems.
Oh, and hey bitrate, did you ever get yourself "Eye of Typhoon"?

As I was typing that word, I was wondering how long it would take someone to comment on it.

Heh, and here I was wondering if I'd be remembered. LOL
Anyhow, here's some more of what you're missing bitrate, going through some of my storage this weekend, so I might be able to find all of these.
Bonus if you have the final mailer that talks about the M2 being cancelled, and the end of 'Hyper Real Clab'. (I love 'engrish'... travel to Asia and you'll see some of the funniest translations)
Will try to find it and more and post later.

Here's some more mags with 3DO intrest. Admittedly Dengenki-Oh covered a lot of systems, but some nice 3DO articles in each, including a large coverage of the Sanyo TRY system.
Oh, and here's some oddities. SNK promo Laserdiscs. Since the Samurai Spirits literature with it mentions the 3DO release, I thought you might like to see it.

Awesome pics Gir Draxa. I don't belive I have ever seen some of those magazines before.
Here is a pic of the complete set of the Japanese 3DO Magazine run. Actually it's missing the Preview issue as I didn't have it dug up when I took the pic.
