3DO face bankruptcy
According to reports of the San Francisco Business Times, American video game
and hardware developers 3DO have filed for insolvency.
3DO became well-known at the beginning of the nineties by way of the games
console of the same name, which, although being technically superior, wasn't
able to conquer the hoped-for market share. The Rewood City based company had
recently been able to reduce debts with the commercial success of console games
such as "High Heat Major League Baseball" or "Army Men", but apparently not able
to avert bankruptcy.
Interestingly enough the 3DO console was designed with the help of the Amiga/CD32
by Commodore - former Amiga warhorses Dave Morse, RJ Mical and Dale Luck had a
significant share in the further development of 3DO.
