Hi!

I was wondering if there are any MSX-gamers on this forum?

Bye!

Im a fan of the MSX and the Sharp X68k. Great Machine unfortantly only avalable in the UK and Japan. So if your looking to collect, gotta have some money.

MSX games like Metal Gear 1 and 2, Gradius (salamander), and Castlevania (Vampire Killer) are the peak of gaming on the MSX. The system is very diverse.

If you cant afford it, there are emulators by far ruMSX is the best. and you can get the images of games alot of places. last i checked MSX games are on 5 1/4 floppys. good luck

I've got an MSX Turbo R. I've only used it a couple of times, but I planon getting into it again soon. I've only got a few games for it, but honestly, I'm really not sure how to use the computer-ish features of it...I can deal with DOS on a pc just fine, but I really don't understand the MSX command line structure, etc.

Indirectly, yes. Opcode has put MSX games out for the ColecoVision, and they are very good.

programming and commands are weird for the MSX. Mostly if i remember correctly is MSX BASIC, i know a little quickBASIC. i dont know any of the commands, but there are a lot of fansites on the net.
