==Overview==
It plays all but 3 games (FAC demo 5, Sphere, and Magoo's Verticle Sync demo), but has many small glitches with other games. Only ~1/3rd or audio is emulated. The program is completely in Japanese, and has very little in the way of configuration: no controller config, no video enhancement options, and no screenshot or savestate support. Also copies of the emulator are given with MSX GameReaders, and as such it doesn't read disk images: you either need to use real disks or mount images in a virtual floppy disk. It's recommended to use [[BlueMSX]] over this.
