Request surrounding the 3DO Interactive Multiplayer platform

Issue #5249 new
klepp0906 created an issue

So ive been a launchbox user for probably close to a year now. Its preeetty darned comprehensive. Two areas i continue to butt-heads on. The fact that sega 32x cd is a separate platform (this ones a bit troublesome, perhaps it is - perhaps it isnt. most people just omit it, and thats what ive resorted to. At least for now)

The other issue that keeps popping up is the default naming of the 3DO platform. Every theme, asset package etc I come across, have all named theirs Panasonic 3DO which is what ive always known it to be myself.

Now I dont doubt there was a good reason for choosing 3DO Interactive Multiplayer over Panasonic 3DO, i propose we update it to the more well known, common latter.

I bring this up now due to the fact that im currently faced with either renaming the default platform in LB and renaming everything associated with it to point to the new name “Panasonic 3DO” or renaming the artwork and videos in every non default package (it seems) to conform to the LB default platform name.

Any reason we dont want to update the name to gain some parity with what appears to be the consensus?
