It hit me while watching you test the power and open buttons, that they're designed pretty much the same way as the ones on the 3DO FZ-1. The buttons on the case push forward, not down. They're chunky pieces of plastic that are mounted on a spring and engage the actual switch, farther inside on the motherboard. You only see small portions of these large plastic buttons that stick out of the front of the case, which are labeled, "power" and "open/close".
This console was so fun to read about in various magazines from 1995 to 1998. Then the Dreamcast (and some unforgettable PSX and N64 games) came out in Japan in late 1998 and I forgot all about it.
Same. My disappointment about its cancellation as a 13 year old kid led me to amass all this M2 stuff and share/dump it. Next sat I’ll have a BIG M2 software dump too
@@VideoGameEsoterica Yeah, I can only imagine they were too far into this board revision and realized where the trip was, and decided this was better than redoing the board. It’s a shame that work went nowhere.
@@VideoGameEsoterica the memory card slot doesn't like to open because it had hot glue in it originally. ES3 was the one that was demonstrated at studio 3do if isn't racing you see in all the books. It had a switch on the side that could toggle between one or two power PC 602s / early in development the ?2 originally only had one power PC 602. It never had the back door when I bought it from him
A switch on the side of this unit or a diff one? Sorry can’t really decipher what you mean as I’ve found no switch on this unit outside the pcmcia card slot
The original 3DO FZ-1 is already one of the coolest looking consoles but the M2 Panasonic really surpassed themselves. Really wish the console was released as it just looked so awesome in the prototype shots you saw in magazines!
@@VideoGameEsoterica would be so interesting to see what could have been with M2 Panasonic really should have released the system as it was practically ready for retail!
Even if the caps were ok still might be better to replace them for preventative maintenance being as they are 25 years old. Also sometimes the cap can leak right under themselves and won't be visibile until after the cap is removed.
I remember reading somewhere that Capcom was going to be a licensed developer for the M2. So maybe we would've got games like street fighter III on the console.
That was probably very early in development. The M2 doesn't look like it would have been easy to develop for since it uses two CPUs similar to the Sega Saturn. Having just one fast CPU I think would have been better for most developers.
The Capcom announcement was made at the same time the Konami announcement was made and Konami produced 5 games for M2 so I’m sure it was beyond the point where the second PowerPC was added and ram was doubled.
To feel confident I won’t break the unit before powering it on? Yes. I am looking for corrosion / leaking electrolytic fluid / other visual signs of issues
Interesting. I believe it was one of your earlier Dreamcast videos where I heard of the M2 first time too, so I wonder what this thing would be up to. If it was really on par with the PS2 or even XBOX, pairing this with a more modern controller and Panasonic streamlining the ecosystem with many devs actually supporting it, this might have had quite an impact.
Also because if you have one that means there are three because I know where the others are. Not saying I don’t believe you…saying maybe there is one more than we thought!
Broke: The “power” and “open” button designs look cool Woke: TWO CONTROLLER PORTS!! Jokes aside, this is amazing! Happy to see a detailed look into a prototype M2, and excited for the future! :)
A few soundbites from the time: My limited knowledge of the Saturn and PSX suggest that trying to do dymanically-computed textures on them would be extraordinarily arduous. With M2, it's a snap.

This is the kinda thing I really hope gets a MiSTer core. Although I imagine there would not be any easy way of knowing it’s accurate withought sacrificing some of the few units out there. But a close approximation would still be nice.

Damn surprised you found one of these. Or found someone who had one, rather. Would be amazing if it had games and someone could make an FPGA out of it for MiSTer.
That was my thought as well. There are a number of arcade platforms that use those cards most Notably the Taito G-Net but also the Konami Viper and Konami System 573. There's definitely resources out there for formatting writing to those cards.

None really. The PCMCIA card slot in finished 21's were for add ons. Networking cards and such. There is no functionality built into that slot in the BIOS for accessories...so it's just ornamental
It's still too bad the M2 never reached the home console market. It had potential as a high-end system in the '96-'97 time frame. Actually, in my dream universe though, instead of working on the M2, RJ Mical and Dave Needle re-tooled the 3DO hardware into a 1996 cart-based handheld, Atari picked it up as the Lynx III-D, it's an instant financial and critical success, and somehow it saves Atari from their own doom at the hands of the Tramiels. So, we end up with 3rd-party support and maybe some great theoretical handheld ports of SSF2T, UMK3, and then maybe Darkstalkers etc. Considering the state of Atari in '95, that's a really far-fetch fantasy haha.
The 3DO is personally one of my favorite consoles and this is just incredible. Amazing piece of history you have here.
Now I just need to make it work!
3DO was great at $300. At $700 when it launched? Not so much.
my birthday was a few days ago. Finding this video is like an amazing birthday present. I always wondered about the M2 and its hardware.
Haha happy birthday!

I remember reading somewhere that Capcom was going to be a licensed developer for the M2. So maybe we would've got games like street fighter III on the console.
Power Stone was an M2 game before moving to Dreamcast. Sadly I’ve never found a single photo, just the main developer saying it was being worked on
