The twelfth installment of the popular series "Perfect Catalog," which thoroughly dissects home retro hardware from both hardware and software perspectives, takes an unexpected turn by focusing not on home gaming consoles but on the MSX.
Proposed by Microsoft and ASCII in 1983, the MSX was the world's first standardized personal computer specification, bringing together 14 domestic companies from the electronics and home appliance industries. This volume will delve into its development history and the societal context of the time in comprehensive detail, allowing readers to rediscover the charm of the hobbyist computer they were passionate about and learned from during their childhood.
This B5-sized book spans 224 pages and is undoubtedly an invaluable resource for discussing the MSX. It provides a complete introduction to the hardware of each MSX manufacturer, including detailed specifications, and showcases over 1400 domestically released software titles with screen and package photos. Additionally, it includes a convenient alphabetical list at the end for easy navigation.
