Interesting that I'm bidding on a Real 3DO console, but I was under the impression it was made by Panasonic. Upon doing some research, I came across some info that the 3DO was released by Panasonic, Goldstar AND Sanyo.

According to the Wikipedia link which I'll post below, the Goldstar version was known not to work so well in its early stages.

Interesting.

Update: I just won the auction for the GOLDSTAR Real 3DO system, with 34 games or so. So now we got 2 "new" systems to add to the show in future episodes. Since we got time until the October show, if either the Jaguar or 3DO arrives before then, expect to see a review to one of them.

Still need to win the two Jaguar games I bid on. Trevor McFur, and Dino Dudes. Let's see what happens.

How much did the systems set you back? Must've been hard to find. There was, if I recall, an Alien game on the Jaguar that was supposed to be decent.

Jaguar costs $50. 3DO was $90. Both including shipping costs. Again, there's 7 days left until the Sega Saturn auction ends, so I should get paid then, and can afford that, even if someone outbids my max bid.

You have to do a review of NiGhts! It was a fun game and I didn't own a Saturn!
