It could be the ISA card sold to connect Saturn game pad.

There was a video card (Nvidia) that was released a while back that was made to run specifically coded games, from the Saturn - they were PC games, but could only run w/ the video card.

I think only 4 titles made it, one of which being PDS.

Wasn't it Virtua Fighter Remix, Daytona and Panzer Dragoon?

So with that card you could stick in one of your saturn games,i.e panzer dragoon,and play it on your pc?

or were they special versions of the game?

Yeah, I don't think PDS got a remake for anything. I remember seeing a review for the unit (PC Format, I think) and it originally shipped with Virtua Fighter (plain vanilla version). I later saw adds that suggested that you could also get Daytona for it too, but I forgot about it after that.

Here's a FAQ..., although it mostly covers technical information and not games.

lupas-> They were special versions of the games.

the Diamond Edge was as PCI card and the two game controlers were on the card or something like that, I wanted to buy this card but Panzer dragoon seemed too be better on a Saturn. On E-Bay, you can see the card sold is an ISA card so it can't be a Diamond Edge.

There is nothing wrong with old technology - this site proves that
