Jasoco Posted November 18, 2003 Share Posted November 18, 2003 I know, I know. I searched the Forums. I did research. But I can't find what a reasonable price for a 3DO is. It would be the original with the two rounded circle columns on the front corners and a flat top with "R-E-A-L" across it. "FZ-10". What would you pay? If you're wondering, I'm only curious because I really got nostalgic and want to play Twisted again. I'd be proud to have it on my shelf. The ones on eBay that are still going are around $40 right now. With a couple games. At least two, sometimes three. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raijin Z Posted November 18, 2003 Share Posted November 18, 2003 $30 is my upper limit for any CD-based gaming system that isn't current-gen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shannon Posted November 18, 2003 Share Posted November 18, 2003 Depends on shipping, and that's not to bad for a panasonic fz-10. Currently the most reliable 3do model and also able to play backups. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VidGameKing Posted November 18, 2003 Share Posted November 18, 2003 I own a FZ-10 iut works G*R*E*A*T!!!! if you can find one for under $50 it would be a good deal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hhwolfman Posted November 18, 2003 Share Posted November 18, 2003 My local used game store has one MIB for $40 I would say that is about right NO box about $20 to $30 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsoper Posted November 18, 2003 Share Posted November 18, 2003 It's a steal at any price, even the original $700. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasoco Posted November 18, 2003 Author Share Posted November 18, 2003 Really? I was sure you guys would try and convince me not to even go for them. I guess that would be the CDi, not the 3DO. Still, is it worth it to just play one game? Twisted!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VidGameKing Posted November 18, 2003 Share Posted November 18, 2003 any system is "worht it" it's just a matter of how "worth it" a system really is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasoco Posted November 18, 2003 Author Share Posted November 18, 2003 any system is "worht it" it's just a matter of how "worth it" a system really is.I have a few on watch. A couple with the game I want complete. Some are $36 right now. One ends in 2 hours but doesn't have the game. I'll probably pass on that one and see what it ends at to get an idea. Another has no picture so I asked the seller about it. If I win, I win. If not, no big deal. It's not even a GREAT game. It's just one I would like to reminisce over remembering the old days when CD games were new. I'm sure there's a lot of games out there I may want to try out as well.

Jasoco Posted November 18, 2003 Author Share Posted November 18, 2003 Yes. That is what I am liking in my mind. Yes. That is the model I played and the game I loved so many years ago. I would be proud to have one on my shelf. If that's the FZ-1, what's the FZ-10? Now I'm all ferjiggered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemmi Posted November 19, 2003 Share Posted November 19, 2003 If that's the FZ-1, what's the FZ-10? Now I'm all ferjiggered. ask and you shall receive its the one on the box Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasoco Posted November 19, 2003 Author Share Posted November 19, 2003 Ahh.. okay, so THAT's the 10. The numbers are so similar, I see Auctions with them all mixed up. Pictures of the 1 with a title for the 10. And now I got it. The 1 is the one I want. Someone said the 10 was the best. Was they mistaken? Or is the one I don't want better? I want the 1 model.

Lemmi Posted November 19, 2003 Share Posted November 19, 2003 no clue which one is the better one, i personally use the FZ-10 because its alittle less bulky alot of people have said the goldstar was prone to break down but i had mine for about 5 years before selling it to Icecold, as far as i know its still going strong, and i bought it from funcoland Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemmi Posted November 19, 2003 Share Posted November 19, 2003 oh want to see my entire 3do collection? everything 3do i own is here except the 3DO magazines i have DOH it helps to add the picture Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mindfield Posted November 19, 2003 Share Posted November 19, 2003 The FZ-10 was a cheaper, cost-cutting console that was incompatible with some of the FZ-1 upgrades. I have an FZ-1, and love it... feels heavy, solid, looks sweet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasoco Posted November 19, 2003 Author Share Posted November 19, 2003 FZ-1. The boxy one with the rounded corner columns and the red and green lights on the sides. That's the one I want. The one I played with so long ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shannon Posted November 19, 2003 Share Posted November 19, 2003 I thought the FZ-1 (front loading), had problems with the frontloader and that the top loading one (FZ-10) was the way to go? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VidGameKing Posted November 19, 2003 Share Posted November 19, 2003 the FZ-1 was very nice, IMO I think it's the best tray loading console out there, very durable!!! but the FZ-10 is durable too, but there have been "some" reprots of the cover breaking. now the FZ-10 does not support the VCD playback or upgrade the FZ-1 has. and if you are going to use that feature at all you should get the GoldStar model anyways because it has the VCD playback built in.

VidGameKing Posted November 19, 2003 Share Posted November 19, 2003 but only if you buy the FZ-1. The FZ-10 does not support the upgrade without internal modding Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
