hey guys
i was wondering if someone here has like a picture or more info on one of these knowns multimedia packs that were sold in the 90s. That came with soundcard, cdrom and CDs with games.

The only thing i kept was a manual, and it says MEDIA VISION FUSION.

Looking online i was unable to find anything about it, no box pictures, no info on what it came with.
The only thing i was able to figure out is that those kits were sold with a Sony CDU-31A drive, which looks like a 2x cdrom drive, and they also came with some CDs with games like Battlechess.
As for the media vision soundcard i have no idea what specific soundcard they came with, probably a PAS16 maybe? mediavision made quite a few soundcards that were ISA.

if anyone has one, please share some info, and pictures would be nice

cdrom was this i belive

too bad in that era pictures were like pixels in these days.
Still wondering if someone in this forum has a box of such kit, i would like to see images 😁

If you search Goole Books for 'Fusion 16 CD' you'll see some of their magazine ads from 1993 with some (slightly) better pics of some of the various packs.

very nice!

is that yours??

mine came with the exact same cd games and speakers,but the cdrom was a sony one.

Not mine. I just found this great picture and want to share, and then read "Philips CD-ROM" on the box and searched the Fusion CD 16 (PAS16) card with Philips interface, have found one and complete the Jigsaw Puzzle. I want to share this information because not easy to identify a Philips CD-ROM interface and also "LMSI" doesn't tell me much. My Fusion CD 16 soundcard I got standalone too and mine also has Sony interface (PAS16SL).
