Yes I own the 'gravis eliminator' game card also. Mortal Kombat I and Mortal
Kombat II will both not work with my gravis and the gravis gamecard. If I
want to use the gravis I have to pull the gamcard and use the game port on
my I/O card or on my soundcard. Sucks if you want to hook a gravis and a
suncom gamepads up at the same time and play MK.

And the MK games are the only games which I've found that hate the gravis
gamecard.
