Sounds good. I prolly just sold my copy for $115, just gotta send the guy some pics of it to make sure he really wants it.

Anyways, its good to see MSX still has a ton of fans. I was beginning to think I was the only one! I prolly am the only MSX fan in Texas though, hehehehe.

Texas? Maybe.... but definitely not the only one in the USA

How did you get interested in MSX?

Yes, good question
MSX was never very popular in the US...

Well, I love Texas and the whole southwestern culture and all that stuff, but unlike most Texans, I'm a big Japanese gaming fan. Its really addictive though. I got interested in MSX because I read on a site that it was an old Japanese computer and that it had lots of Falcom and Compile games..oh yeah, and Metal Gear 2, of course. I've been hooked ever since. I also like the NEC PC98 and the x68k (which I can't find any games for x68k besides whats in TOSEC). MSX2 is my favorite tho.

I DID have a gf that was into the whole hentai game thing, but she moved away. I can't believe the only other Japanese game fan I know in real life is a hot girl. Yeah, Texas is weird, but I like it.

I don;t even think the MSX was ever officially released in the US, was it?

Yamaha released their CX5M but marketed it as a musical instrument.
Spectravideo might've sold their SVI 318/328 computers, which are kind of like a pre-MSX.
Other than that, MSX wasn't introduced in the USA at all. There are some interesting historical articles on 'why'...
