3DO Reference Information?

[Shadow Kisuragi]

Hello all. I recently obtained a few 3DO items and some questions started coming up.

- Is there anywhere I can reference CIB listings for 3DO games? I know that some games came with the snap-clasp long boxes (with disc-in-tray) and others came with the slide-open long boxes (with jewel cases), but most of my games are loose games with all of the documentation and I'd like to know which boxes I would need to complete those games. I'd also like to know what documentation I'm missing for the games that I currently have boxes for.

- Does anyone know what a NIB FZ-1 3DO looked like or have pics? I ordered my CIB 3DO for $80+shipping, opened it up and it still has all of the wax paper, styrofoam and cardboard undisturbed. There are no tape marks on the box to indicate that it was unsealed in any fashion, but my only concern that it's not NIB is that some of the cables are twist-tied and some are zip-tied. It even has the original $699.99 price sticker on it from Babbages. I have pics on my phone, so I may be able to attach images later.

This is being worked on in the 3DO community. There is quite a variety in packaging formats just with the US releases alone. Likewise, the documentation included from game to game varies greatly. If you listed what games you have I could help you answer this question.

I have a NIB FZ-1. If you are wanting to know whether it's unused or not I would say no, as zip-ties were never used by the manufacturer as cable management for any 3DO system.

Thanks for the info on the zip-ties. I don't believe the system was ever used due to the condition, but the AV cables have zip-ties. Do you have any images I could reference for the 3DO?

As for the games, I have about 30 separate games. I'll post up the ones I have questions for later when I get home.

Here are some of the long boxes to check against the games that you have :)

I just got my 3do today and i was wondering two things. Did the system do good? I wouldn't think so but I really do not know about it. My next ?, Is there any games that are fun or value
