| | 3DO |
 | | Initially, the 3DO was priced at over $700.00 USD, an extremely high amount of money at the time, especially when other game systems could be purchased for much, much less. |
 | | It was to make the 3DO a 64-bit machine, capable of running software that would leave the Playstation in the dust, but instead of releasing this technology to the 3DO owners, as promised, it was sold off, never to see the light of day in a game console. |
 | | 3DO console owners were left high and dry, and in 1996, the 3DO company ceased support of the console and transitioned into a software developer. |
