3DO manual size question

[Arseen]

The new smaller cases for PS1 and Dreamcast got me thinking, do all 3DO games come in jewel cases, I mean are all the manual CD sized or are some DVD sized?

Just asking if all are CD sized I'll probably go with those, but if some are DVD sized I'll stick with the DVD cases.

US manuals for 3DO games are huge. They came in long boxes.

PAL stuff is mostly jewel case size afaik.

Actually it depends on the game.

Some games came with long manuals (like Syndicate) wile others came with jewel case size manuals (like super street fighter II).

Some games came in cardboard boxes containing jewel cases (like Wing Commander III) wile other came in  long boxes holding the actual game.

3DO packaging was not very consistent. Wile most look to be the same "Long Box" from the outside, the way the contents were package inside came in a huge variety of ways.

So some manuals are even taller than DVD manuals, so the don't fit even in a DVD case?

Correct because they were in the long box cases (US Sega CD & Sega Saturn games also used the long box).
