Is there anything interesting and worth playing on the MSX/MSX2 computers? Other than the first Metal Gear games.
Fray, Knightmare games and Tales of Popolon (not retro) the first parodius maybeAlso SD snatcher but I guess that counts as metal gear
>>10939849I prefer the MSX2 version of Snatcher to the other versions. It's just more soulful with the MSX graphics, and there's an English translation for it. Aleste 2 is worth checking out too, though it's hard as hell.
>>10939883>>10939890These look fun, thanks.
>>10939849Konami has a lot of cool stuff on the MSX, and if you happen to be a HAL Labs fan, all their weird early shit is on MSX.
>bought an MSX 2+ with a couple flashcarts from some nerdy boomer>have yet to even plug it in
I thought Antarctic Adventure was pretty fun. I didn't care for the sequel too much and thought the boss battles ruined it.
>>10939849Yes, most of the Konami exclusives are worth looking into, especially Space Manbow.
>>10939890>I prefer the MSX2 version of Snatcher to the other versionswhy? it ends on a cliff-hanger>>10939849konami, falcom and compile were the main devs. not much outside of those 3 except all the modern day homebrew
Yeah MSX is mostly a Konami machine.Hi no tori aka Firebird for MSX2 is pretty good. Like a more advanced take on Knightmare.
stuff that Yuzo Koshiro composed for
>>10939849Treasure of Usas is the best MSX2 exclusive nobody talks about.Aleste , Aleste 2, and Aleste GaidenLaydock, Laydock 2 and Super LaydockFamicle Parodic 1 & 2Knightmare & Knightmare II: Maze of Galious
