I take a look at the the MSX 2 system. It was the first video game console I ever played! (Panasonic FS-A1MK2)<br />
<br />
I recently stumbled upon a random "top ten" video on retro MSX games, and in that list was a childhood memory of mine. The very first game I can remember playing, Maze of Galious. So I just had to go out and buy an MSX. There was some research needed, since the MSX is kind of a jungle. In this video are some of my conclusions from navigating this jungle, plus me just trying out some games on this wonderful little computer. The model I have is the Panasonic A1 Mk2. It only has 64k of ram and no disk drive, but a flash cart can take care of that!<br />
<br />
I wanted to make my videos a little bit more professional, so I got a tripod and a mike. Still only using my crappy phone for a camera, so I hope the quality is acceptable.<br />
