Somewhere Trip Hawkins is smiling uncontrollably! 😂 Have a great Christmas Fella!

[@TeamPandory]

Heyyy - Happy Christmas! I hear he's a pretty awesome guy. Arcade Attack have an interview with him ;-) kzbin.info/www/bejne/h3LSeWZpi7Wgibc

YEAH Panasonic 3DO !

[@honestfigurereviews]

You did a great job replacing the capacitors You bought that console back to life and made it even better than before. Road Rash is one of my all time favourite games and by all accounts online it says that the 3DO has the best version of it I've never owned a 3DO but I would love to play this game to see what makes it the best on this system

[@TeamPandory]

Tbh that version of Road Rash was ported everywhere, the PS1 version is pretty much the same game and even had a couple of extra titles in the series (Road Rash 3D and Road Rash Jailbreak)

Great job

[@TeamPandory]

@@miguelcarneiro1192 Thanks 🙏. It was pretty stressful and the recapping took ages. Wish I'd have had just a bit of footage of it. 😭

[@miguelcarneiro1192]

@@TeamPandory :) but you did it at last and know you have an upgraded 3do my friend. It is a cool console

[@TeamPandory]

@@miguelcarneiro1192 yeah for sure, the caps needed switching, and they had to be done sooner or later 😊

[@miguelcarneiro1192]

@@TeamPandory yeh, that was notable on the video specially on the sound

[@gamernix5329]

This is incredible!

We used to call it the "kotatsu" as it looks like a heated leg warming table in Japan

I figured out where I thought I heard your accent before. It's one of the guys off No such thing as a fish podcast

Does this exact set up also work with the Humble Bazooka Expansion Bracket? Those RF sheilds look like they would be a problem for it.

[@100Bucks]

Road Rash looks like 15fps.

3DO's attempt at being JVC (VHS) of game consoles. Alas, that did not happened😓 PS: Oy, John Luke. Chicken made an innuendo (inserting a long shaft), but you had no remark on that. Fell asleep?😅

[@bhirawamaylana466]

1:34 is that Raspberry Pi Zero? How ironic using Raspberry Pi Zero which probably more powerful than 3DO just to be CD drive replacement 🤷‍♂️.

[@TeamPandory]

@@bhirawamaylana466 yes. It definitely is 😁. I guess if it's never a total loss as it can be resurrected to be a pi Pico if unsoldered from the board.

[@XeCuTioNR]

​@@TeamPandory one of my friends ordered that board (or one of them), the seller refused to give the .uf2 file (the pico programming file) in order to get it to work. Still trying to find it for him.

[@TeamPandory]

@@XeCuTioNR it should work out of the box (it's installed already)
