Is Grendal still making them or would someone have one to sell? I found a mint condition 3d pro at a 2nd hand store for 3.99 and it's a gameport version and I would love to use it.
I sent him a PM but haven't heard back.
Thanks

AFAIK, Gren isn't making them for sale, but he has posted the schematic and parts list so people can make them. Just look at the sticky in the Tech section.
Even if you're like me, non-handy with a soldering iron, I'd pick up that stick for $4.

just buy a pci soundcard with the gameport in it...easier fix than the iron.

Grendel's adaptor is better by leaps and bounds.
