  • The MSX2 is the upgraded version of the MSX standard. It maintained full backwards compatibility, and while the CPU remained the same, it provided better video and audio chips and much more RAM. A number of early MSX games were re-released as MSX2-upgraded versions. The standard was followed by the MSX2+ and MSX turboR standards, but the market for the MSX was already declining at that point, so these only managed to find some success in Japan and Brazil.

abstract
  • The MSX2 is the upgraded version of the MSX standard. It maintained full backwards compatibility, and while the CPU remained the same, it provided better video and audio chips and much more RAM. A number of early MSX games were re-released as MSX2-upgraded versions. The standard was followed by the MSX2+ and MSX turboR standards, but the market for the MSX was already declining at that point, so these only managed to find some success in Japan and Brazil. Note: this list is only for games that require an MSX2 computer. Games compatible with the first generation MSX machines go on their own page. Many games have slightly different MSX and MSX2 versions; in such cases, the MSX2 version is usually superior, so add only the MSX2 version here and not the older MSX version.
