It was a tough decision to sell this great machine, but I prefer someone having fun with it instead of having it just collecting dust on my attic.

The author of Moonblaster selling his MSX. Probably the one where the opl4 versions were programmed on?

I know it's not my business, but it has been in that attic for 15 years already, why sell now? You had a special youth because of this thing. Even if you would never use it again, it's part of you

Yes, sad when you see MSX gurus decide to get rid of their MSX stuff... It is as if MSX itself lost something.

Guys, I understand the sentiment but I left the scene already in 97/98. I have some great memories of the years before that and those memories are part of me. The actual machine not so much. I never touched it since 98 and keeping it boxed for another 20 years or so is just a waste. I am not (and never was) a a collector. This machine is in very good condition and should become part of a nice collection and /or go to an MSX-enthusiast who is still actively enjoying it.

Oh, and yes, this is the MSX that I used to develop MoonBlaster for MoonSound on.

So, anyone interested in making an offer?
