My MSX collection

[Argon]

I'm an MSX-only collector. (Although I have a Sinclair ZX81 set too )

My collection can be viewed on http://www.msx.be.tf

I mainly collect the games for the MSX system, but I have a decent amount of MSX computers too

Nice collection...
I particularly like the HitBit 501F. I remember that, at the time, I had this huge hesitation between the CPC 464 and this one. I finally chose the Amstrad. Still, I would like to get one Sony soon.
I had a Philips 8020 and 8235 which are both cool computers...

Yup, cool looking machine that 501

That's a very impressive collection!

Do you read Japanese well enough to use their auction sites or are they translated?

Hehe,
I have a friend in Japan.
I send him money, and then all I have to do is type MSX in the search box of the Jap auction site and watch the pictures
I then send him the auctions links I want to bid together with my max bids.

Simple but it works
I'm actually learning Japanese, to be able to play them Jap MSX games, but I'm just at "Hello", "How are you", so not much use yet

MSX was popular in Europe, but hardly anyone knows about it in the USA. I heard it was pretty comparable with the C-64 (which was also popular in Europe). Did you ever see many Apple II computers there back in the 80's in your region?
