· Quote

Fine guys, I have to ask, what do you feel is the best import for the 3DO? I ask because I am really about to launch myself into the import frey and try and get what I can of these rare gems anymore; what's the top and what's the bottom of 3DO gamedom?

I've heard most if not all of the 3DO games that were only released in Korea are the rarest import games for the 3DO, Eye of the Typhoon was a 2D fighting game only released in Korea.

I have seen this game running and must admit, I am more than curious. I would love to get my hands on this game just to see what it's all about Looks pretty damn awesome.

Blue Forest Story was my best import.   Unfortunately, it's one of the few games that only works on Japanese 3DO's because of the extra Kanji font used in the game.

I've always thought that weird, most games had their own font sets in their data, to have the fonts in the hardware like a PC is different. Too bad thats the only reason the games with it won't run on a US 3DO.

I agree with Trev. So I support his 4 and add Takietsu rooms! It's very good, basically Bomberman meets water kind of game.

Blue Forest is amazing to look at. Mrs 3DOkid played BFS to completion and it's, honestly, toooo Japanese.

Random battle angst, just doesn't quite cover it. Step and battle and step and battle and step and battle and step and battle. Literally. I would have smashed the thing to bits. The graphics mind you are amazing. To be honest, I'd say stick with Lucienne's Quest!

Let's not forget some Warps more friendly imports too. Casual, puzzle games, so they get a vote. Except for anything involving Mahjong. Which I have grown to hate venomously.

The smutty games are pretty Ok too if I'm honest.

Really?  Shocked

Wow, that is prety impressive!  My wife is a gamer, but I can't picture her sticking w/an rpg all the way til the end.  Nice! Very Happy

Now you need to bug her to translate a walkthrough for us ...

She is the worst person in the world. She sat played it through, and her definition of the plot, which I implicitly asked for, was at best vague.  Iget further guessing myself!

I've never seen it on Ebay, or at the usual japanese game sites.  Kid might be able to provide some clue ...

I'd actually like to give it a whirl myself ... I should inquire.
