Anybody have a 3DO?

I've been using the FZ-1 model the past few years. They say that they have high failure rates but mine has been playing just fine with no problems. And good choice picking up a 3DO. Another one of those consoles that didn't get enough love but plenty of good games are on the system.
Ozzy_98:
I just fired up my FZ-10 last night. It had a copy of Hell in it.  Even for the time, that was such a joke.  Technology issues is one thing, the choppy, out of sync actions were not caused by technical limitations.  The FZ-10 also looks a lot like a Turbo Duo
TDIRunner:
Someone may have to correct me if I am wrong, but I believe the FZ-1 required a CD to access the memory manager BIOS, while the FZ-10 could access the memory manager simply by turning the system on with the lid open (like the PS1).  I only mention this because the CD was probably easily lost for most people and probably won't be included with most FZ-1 sales.  It would be another thing you have to find. 

With that said, I will still probably get an FZ-1 whenever I pick one up (I'm also looking for a 3DO, just not very aggressively).
GamerX:
I have the FZ-10 model and it works great.  You do need a disc for the memory manager with the FZ-1 model.  If you loose the disc, you can use the Game Guru game enhancer as this also has a memory manager feature.
Megatron:
Thank you all for the information! I really appreciate it.


It sounds like the FZ-1 is the way to go, IF I can get a memory disc.  If not, then I am glad to know the FZ-10 is a solid machine as well.  I guess now it will be whichever I can get my hands on first, for the cheapest amount.
