Is this a scala dongle?

I found this in storage. Is this a Scala dongle? Thx.

yes..

Indeed, it has the Scala logo...

What's "magical" about this device? It plays the Konami Code: Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, B, A to unlock the software?

 

[Pixel /dev/null]

yeah the software needed the dongle and the hardware card needed the software.

There is a version of Scala400 that doesn't need the dongle - I had it years ago.

IIRC ... that protection by Scala lasted about as long as Ocean's Robocop 3 attempt did
