===Comparison===;[[Phoenix (emulator)|Phoenix]]:A newer, closed-source project by a long time FreeDO contributor. It is the most compatible 3DO emulator (claiming 100% compatibility). The PC versions are completely in Russian (you can download an English translation patch [http://www.rlauncher.com/forum/showthread.php?4160-Help-with-3DO-Phoenix-2-8 here]). Most of the settings are translated [[:File:3DO_Phoenix_Translated.png|in this picture]].;[[4DO]]:A fork of the FreeDO emulation project, but the standalone version is only available for Windows.

Paved the way for preliminary 3DO emulation development while spawning 4DO and Phoenix. Was open source at one point but became closed due to fear of legal issues. <ref name="open to closed">http://www.freedo.org/HTML/faq.html</ref>;[[Phoenix (emulator)|Real3DOPlayer]]:The Phoenix emulation project is released as separate emulators for Android, this is the 3DO version. Identical compatibility to PC version according to the author. Requires 1.5 GHz dual-core ARM or better for full speed.
