Agoura Hills and unincorporated Agoura sit next to Calabasas, Malibu, Oak Park, and Westlake Village. The area was first settled by the Chumash Native Americans around 10,000 years ago. As the Alta California coast was settled by Spanish Franciscan missionaries in the late 18th century, the El Camino Real , a road from Loreto, Baja California, Mexico to Sonoma, California, and connecting the Spanish missions in California, was established through the heart of what would later be known as Agoura Hills.

The 3DO Company , also known as 3DO , was a video game company. It was founded in 1991 under the name SMSG, Inc. by Electronic Arts founder Trip Hawkins in a partnership with seven other companies, including LG, Matsushita , AT&T, MCA, Time Warner, and Electronic Arts. After the 3DO Company's flagship video game console, the 3DO Interactive Multiplayer failed in the marketplace, the company exited the hardware business and became a... third-party video game developer. When the company was first founded, its original objective was to create a next-generation, CD-based video game system which would be manufactured by various partners and licensees; 3DO would collect a royalty on each console sold and on each game manufactured. To game publishers, the low $3 royalty rate per game was a better deal than the higher royalties paid to Nintendo and Sega when making games for their consoles.
