What is MSX?

It's an 80's computer

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

MSX was the name of a standardized home computer architecture in the 1980s. It was a Microsoft-led attempt to create unified standards among hardware makers, conceived by one-time Microsoft Japan executive Kazuhiko Nishi. Despite Microsoft's involvement, MSX-based machines were seldom seen in the United States but were hugely popular in other markets.

Hi guys,

Basically, i've got the PenkoDS file on my DS, have patched it (a couple of different ways, infact) DLDI and whatever, and also have my (only rom) Metal Gear 2.dsk file in a roms/msx folder.

When i select PenkoDS on my DS it loads fine, but just comes up with a keyboard on the bottom screen and the Basic thing on the top. How do i actually play the game? Do i have to type something in using the on screen keyboard?

I've tried everything that's been mentioned in this thread but to no avail so far, and am now stuck! Any help much appreciated!

Well MG 2 runs with autostart for me. I'd look for the .ROM version. The thing is it runs very slowly. I haven't tried fMSXDS with MG2 though.

Cheers for the response mate.

Got it to work eventually, just moved the ROMS out of the roms/msx folder and put them in the root; worked fine after that!

Sound is pretty poor in this emulator. Do you experience this in every game? I have what you are describing in some games.
