I don't think they're actually 'for' anything.  I vaguely remember back in the 80's someone (TSR maybe) conjuring up a 'd30 game system' but I don't think it ever really took off.  I can't think of a single game that uses d30.

there is no game that needs a d30, there are a few games that sprang up just to find a use for the D30...   Still dosent beat my D5

the D30 is now most commonly used as a golf ball

The D100 is a better golf ball (Ask Derek if you don't know what a D100 looks like :D).

Formula-D uses a D30, But it isn't a normal D30 :'(.
