Back in 1991, when EA was Electronic Arts: Desert Strike & Road Rash & Monster League & Madden Ambulance 92'
The founder of Electronic Arts tried to push a system on the market in Fall of 93', the 3DO
The only problem was, the dude wanted $699 for the system
Needless to say, Nintendo and Sega easily killed the system from the onslaught until it's death in 96'. Because of it not being related to Sega or Nintendo, relatively unknown for the most part in massive failures. In sense though, a casual way for gaming companies to remember to not screw around with it's customers.
