Message: [QUOTE="UnDubious, post: 281561, member: 4030"] Somebody mentioned the 3DO, I will say I was surprised that there were more Japanese-exclusive 3DO games then I expected. There was a real push to sell it there, which resulted in a handful of RPGs being made for the Japanese market. They even had a 3DO magazine. Sales of the system were decent at first for a niche console, but dropped very rapidly. In a way, they tried what Xbox tried but years earlier and with way less money - pushing a Western console in Japan by adapting to the market. I like to say that the 3DO was the best of the failed consoles of the 32-bit era (I don't count the Saturn as failed as it at least had success in Japan). It has a larger, better, and more well-rounded library than the 32X, Jaguar, CD-i or PC-FX. [/QUOTE]
