for $100,000,000. Is that right?

I've seen that figure in print several times before. To be honest, it doesn't seem too rediculous a figure when you consider that News International recently paid $580 million for myspace. Whether the investment was a sensible one or not is a different matter. Don't forget, with 102 million original playstations sold, should the M2 have been a success on that scale, the original investment would equate to a mere dollar per console sold! Although, with no consoles sold, it does seem to have been a bit of a waste of money. --The globetrotter 01:34, 1 August 2006 (UTC)


 * M2 was definitely sold for a $100 million, I remember it vividly. You have to realize that there was MASSIVE hype around the hardware at the time, and it looked to be just about finalized and ready to go to market when Matsushita bought it.  Everyone still thought they were crazy, of course, for spending that kind of money (especially when they did basically nothing with it).  Also, this article completely misses the fact that M2 started out as an add-on to the original 3DO unit.  All 3DOs came with expansion ports that were designed to be used with the add-on, and in fact, many salespeople who sold the original 3DO consoles did so while promising the eventual release of the M2 add-on.This page mentions the M2 add-on, as do many others.

Orphaned references in Panasonic M2
I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Panasonic M2's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "gamespy": From List of commercial failures in video gaming:  From 3DO Interactive Multiplayer:  

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 15:16, 6 February 2016 (UTC)

 * Do you know the first thing about video game history? It's common knowledge to anyone with even a passing understanding of the subject that the M2 was never released.  This is not an edit war, it's vandalism, and a responsible editor would be reverting this vandalism rather than asking an anon for sources that don't exist.

 * Indeed, while all the reverting is not great, a quick cursory search can confirm that the system was never released, and whether or not a product was released is generally a pretty easy thing to confirm... Sergecross73   msg me  15:52, 19 February 2016 (UTC)
