Retro Akiba: Fred’s MSX Collection

Category: Misc - Tags: -Japan, Akihabara, Games, Msx, Panasonic, Retro

Here’s another Retro Akiba, this time Fred’s MSX collection that includes several games like Policenauts from Hideo Kojima the father of Metal Gear… and some nice pieces of hardware including a Turbo R and a One Chip MSX…

To make things even better, Fred told us that some of his precious games were bought at Mister Potato in Akihabara… a place we had the chance to visit a while ago and shoot some video for you.

Thanks to Fred for the pictures!

My 1st real computer was a MSX and I loved so much, I made a lot good memories from it.

As far as I know, Policenauts was NOT released for MSX! (the picture shows the NEC PC98 version)
Btw, i still have and use an MSX! Long live MSX!

My first computer was a Philips VG8020 MSX with 80Kb RAM! Operating System is MSX Basic by Microsoft, easy to learn and program.
Many good memories from back in the 80′s!
I still have it!
