These also appear 3 entries that are incorrect (Below table), All New Peoples Game Show was released as Zhadnost, The M2 (of course!) and "World Cup Striker" which the entry states "Not "Striker: World Cup Special" by Panasonic. This may have been a title previously used for the game that was developed by US Gold and released by Panasonic, though the 3DO Direct Catalog lists the game as manufactured by Coconuts." which of course is the same thing.

All-New People's Game Show Studio 3DO
Console, M2 Panasonic Infamous accelerated 3DO technology that was never to be. This unit was all about 3D gaming. It would have been the first console with a 64-bit processor and it gone out when expected, by the end of 1995. At it's core, the M2 was an IBM PowerPC 602 chip capable of handling more than a million polygons per second and able to display MPEG video (near-VHS quality). It was also reported to house 6MByte of memory and a larger data cache as well as an internal data transfer rate of 528MByte per second.
