It was 1994 and Street Fighter II was still huge. Seemingly out of the blue, the 3DO received a port of Super Street Fighter II Turbo a mere 8 months after its arcade debut. And it was glorious...

Episode Notes:
1. 3DO version captured via S-Video from a 240p Japanese system. Arcade from MAME.
2. This was called Super Street Fighter II X Grand Master Challenge in Japan.
3. The 3DO does indeed have an official arcade stick. The FZ-JS1.
4. I wanted to show a battle with Akuma but didn't want to spoil his entrance since its hidden and dependent on your performance.
5. This game is on everything. There have also been multiple remixes, releases and remakes.
6. Load times in the 3DO version are quite tolerable. The game will hitch every so often when loading data but it isn't anything that will cause you grief.
7. I really tried to keep the special moves popping in the gameplay capture to show you just how well they come off with the proper controller.

I bought a used 3do like 5 years ago at a auction in boise Idaho. They didn’t know what it was. Some thought it was a VCR or DVD player. Best 20 bucks I’ve spent.

Brings back memories. I had this on the Sega Genesis as a kid but one day my Uncle bought himself a 3DO with this game and my fragile little mind was blown away by the differences in graphics.

@SirReptitious 3 года назад

The 3DO was priced so obscenely it was a complete joke to me. Between it's insane price, and Nintendo and Sega being the only "real" game companies around, I knew it was going to fail. I bought a Genesis when Super Street Fighter II came out for it, JUST to play that single game. Is it the best SFII game? Of course not. But for the price I was very happy with it(and that game wasn't cheap either, since it was on a double-sized cartridge).

It was a really cool system at the time. Got mine as a Christmas present when they still sold at the original MSRP and have that original system still working underneath my TV today. :) Star Control II (my late stepfather’s favorite game of all time), Need For Speed and several other games offered things in the 3DO versions that weren’t available on other platforms. I got so much mileage out of it that I didn’t move to a newer system until Christmas 1997 (PS1). Lots of great gaming memories from those years.

This was ones of the games I rented with a 3DO back in days. While most aspects of it were very impressive, I found the lack of parallax scrolling to be inexplicable and inexcusable. I mean, here's a $700 console in 1994 and it can't do something that's a staple of 16-bit gaming and my Genesis (and SNES) can do with ease!

Correct. Also inexcusable is the low quality sound effects for a system with plenty of storage space. Higher versions even fit in the snes spc700 64kb memory (if you exclude the music).

My biggest regret with this version of the game was not having a proper 6 button controller to play it with. SSF2T along with Return Fire were also my first games for the system when I went to trade a lot of snes, GB and genesis games I didn't want for for the 3DO.

@Not-Great-at-Gaming 3 года назад

Back then, every console had good and unique titles. Even the Jaguar had Tempest 2000 and AVP. The Virtual Boy was a very unique experience across the board. The CD-I had Pebble Beach Golf. Personally, the 3DO was my system of choice for a few years, until Saturn and PS1 came out in US.

@JohnDoe-wq5eu 3 года назад

@@Not-Great-at-Gaming The biggest problem with the 3DO is you really have to look at it historically. You have to see where it fits in that little niche between the 16-bit era and the early 32-bit era. The problem was after the Saturn and definitely after the PlayStation were launched it faded so fast into obscurity it wasn't even funny. I owned one after I owned a PlayStation and going back was incredibly painful. It's remarkable how archaic it felt just a few years after the PlayStation launched. I'm pretty sure I still have it sitting in my garage somewhere yet it might have been one of the few consoles I actually gave away because of the time I just couldn't find any games for it and just didn't care.

@lazarushernandez5827 3 года назад

@lmcgregoruk 3 года назад

@@lazarushernandez5827 The 3DO and Neo-Geo were no doubt good systems, the killing blow for both, was the insanely huge price tags they cost at the time. Probably the same reason that in the UK, 9 out of 10 kids would have had a ZX Spectrum rather than a Commodore 64, I don't think doubted that the C64 had the superior hardware, but when you could get a Spectrum for a fraction of the cost, and still have fun with mostly the same games, that's what's going to happen. Plus since parents were the ones paying for it, they're more likely to get something cheaper for their kid. It did have the advantage of because most people had the same system, swapping/borrowing/copying tapes gave you more choice of games to play.

@theoldpcgamer77 3 года назад

At the time of release this machine was amazing. Road rash and NFS were crazy looking and as you said this version of SF2 was pretty much arcade perfect and far beyond the 16 bit versions. As a machine to own between the 16 bit era until Ridge racer arrived on the PS1 at launch it was very enjoyable with some great games. I sure enjoyed using mine back then. Every machine gets superceded by something better, luckily i was around to experience each new gen of gaming in person.

The og fz1 3DO is one of the best looking consoles of all time. Aesthetically seeing it running this game on import and being about a grand is nostalgia. The blinking led access lights, like model one mega cd, just by themselves are nostalgic and for the time seemed so cool. Imagining having this new super console that could and indeed was running arcade perfect ports. The future was here and, it was 700 dollars 😛 road rash...gex...I loved it. Wolfenstein on it was port of the mac version and included all the extra maps. Return fire on it was/is also absolutely sublime. A cool and quirky machine.

@SomeOrangeCat 3 года назад

Another definitive port on the 3DO is Star Wars: Rebel Assault. The FMV assets look so damned clean compared to even the PC original, and it controls so damned good! The cursor doesn't auto re-center like in so many other versions of the game. This is crucial in the flight levels, as you can actually properly dodge things!

I was lucky enough to have a friend with a 3DO and this game when it was new, and while the default controllers were pretty garbo he had adapters that let us use our SNES gamepads.

Interesting to see people talking about the price. I think a lot of people forget that the video game systems from Nintendo and Sega (and later Sony) had manufacturing controlled by the company and were sold at a loss with that offset by higher royalties on the games. By contrast, 3DO itself didn’t manufacture the hardware, rather that was licensed to manufacturers to make various models (Panasonic, Goldstar, Creative Labs, etc.) and were originally not intended to sell at that sort of a loss - and the licensing fees were much lower, In other words, it’s not that the 3DO was price-gouging, it’s that market price expectations were artificially low due to years of being accustomed to systems selling at a big loss and the unsustainably of that in a model with lower royalties.

I wish the system had more longevity because I got the feeling my dad felt like he wasted his money after I got bored with it in less than 2 years.

At the time, I was shocked that SSF2T made it to the 3DO but it did do the arcade port justice! Those arranged soundtracks.....wonderful!

At the time this was the most sort after game for me in the UK in1994 Sadly to expensive for me. Super moves, Turbo costumes, Akuma. Arcade perfect looking in magazines. what a port this truly was. And that redbook audio makes it great even to this day.

Aside from Lucienne's Quest, this is the biggest 3DO game I've wanted to play. I know arcade-perfect versions have been available for almost a decade and a half, but there's just something special about these old console versions

@perlichtman1562 3 года назад

@Sega Lord X Great video as usual! I just wanted to make one small distinction since as a game music composer/arranger myself I want to make sure the new music got full credit. :) Most of the soundtrack comes from the FM Towns version but there are a few tracks that are different between the two. Going from memory, the FM Towns version had a different intro song (the SSFII one) and no Akuma theme, so both of those arrangements first appeared on the 3DO. I’m not sure if there were any other differences but I love that intro music as much as you do, so I wanted to highlight that the arrangement appeared on 3DO first. :)

@lvl99ultrathug 3 года назад

I’ve only seen the FM Towns port via a few videos that I’ve watched, but I remember noticing that the music didn’t continue playing between rounds and that it was missing the KO versions of the music (aka the “heavy damage” themes). Then again I’m not sure if the game was being played on real hardware

@TBMartin 3 года назад

Where I used to live there was a computer shop who used to rent out games and consoles but what was very special about this shop is the consoles were imports so I got to play a lot of import games before most kids my age. I got to play on consoles like the Saturn, N64, 3DO and Neo Geo CD before most kids. This game was one of them and to this day is still one of my favourite Street Fighter ganes

@MoltoRubato88 3 года назад

The other technical wonder, in terms of Street Fighter II, is the PC Engine version: especially when you consider that the game ran on an 8-bit card. The downside? It was only released on Japan, so the text is in Japanese.

@vasileios6301 3 года назад

Pcengine may had an 8bit cpu,but it also had DUAL 16bit gpu. That made a huge difference,for pure 8bit wonder check the Master System version which was released in Brasil.

Very well said man. Only two of us back in the day had the 3DO and we had our heads blown off by the this port of SFII. The animation and sprite size is what hit me the most, I'll never forget it. I actually never even noticed the graphical differences until you mentioned them. Cheers buddy.

@BrianEngdoinghisTheng 3 года назад

I liked street fighter 2 when I was a kid but when I first got to play ssf2t on the 3do I became obsessed with it. The soundtrack was absolutely the killer. Too bad about the p button placement. I never found an adapter that allowed me to play arcade sticks on it. I missed out with the snes adapter. They do have the soundtrack on the 15 anniversary sf collection on ps2 and ogxbox.
