THE MARVELOUS XPORT EXTERNAL ODE FOR 3DO

Posted by Marcel Francisco Borean on Sep 6th 2023

I discovered ODE with a friend, the possibility of revitalizing an old warrior like my FZ-10 is sensational. With the great advantage of zero heavy modifications, such as welding, trail breakage, etc. It`s a great addition to any collector, providing direct access to the entire 3DO library quickly and easily. Great job guys.

This ODE is a game-changer

Posted by Rex on Mar 29th 2023

I`m a huge fan of ODEs that don`t require taking out the disc drive to install, so as soon as this showed up on the SAG store I had to pick one up. It works great, but big big big big big major warning: it seems to have some issues with Goldstar 3DO units. I couldn`t get mine to connect at all (it felt like something was blocking it from connecting fully) and, judging from posts on the 3DO Discord, even if I had been able to get it to connect it would be hit or miss as to whether it would actually function. That being said, I traded my Goldstar unit for an FZ-1 at a local game store and it works perfectly with that. Setting up the SD Card is extremely simple, the interface is nice (I love being able to queue up discs in a playlist and switching between them via a button on the ODE), and I haven`t been encountered any compatibility issues so far. I also love that I can still use all my 3DO discs.
