I too can not find info on this card.

All I can say is that Micro Conversions closed in 1999 and was bought up by iWonder. Of course that seems to be a dead end too.

Micro Conversions, Inc. is closed.

5/27/1999 

Micro Conversions, Inc. has ceased operations. All Game Wizard™ products, technology rights and support have been picked-up by iWonder, Inc. As soon as possible, details will be available at www.iwonderinc.com - 817-496-6337 - 817-496-6339 (fax) - toll free sales: 877-237-8622 (877-BestMac). 

iWonder is currently developing additional really-cool Mac™ products. The iWizard™ line will be their flagship product until those new products yield. 

Other Micro Conversions' products are still in negotiation for ongoing support. More details will become available over the next week or so. In any case, NuBus and PDS cards won't be made in the future and those were the _last_ of their kind. There may be an interruption in Game Wizard availability, so those in the channel should be bought ASAP. 

Needless to say, the Micro Conversions' $40 Manufacturer's Mail-in Rebate is gone.


Well it sold. Time will tell if it was someone active in the community.

Wasn't me but without the correct ROM don't think it's going to matter. That card though, IS really cool. We are so close with the ROM chips I have I don't think it will be long before we get one working :)

I asked the seller for a couple more photos of the card since it sold. Not sure if they will be willing to. I just hate to see when things like this vanish into the collectors black hole. I understand some dont like to share, which I never understood.

Could it also be a serial port?  Or network port?  for games or controls of some sort?

The seller awesomely provided more picture of the unit. I have many more than this, but since its the card that is most interesting I have included some here.

I do remember reading about a video card that was used in DEV models, it allowed for output to a traditional monitor.
