MSX-4
MSX-4[edit]
The MSX-4 is a standard for home computers that was announced as the fourth generation of the MSX series. The MSX standard was originally conceived by Kazuhiko Nishi of ASCII Corporation and Microsoft in the early 1980s. The MSX-4 represents a continuation of the MSX philosophy, aiming to provide a unified platform for software and hardware developers.
History[edit]
The MSX-4 was announced in the early 2020s as a modern revival of the MSX standard, which had seen its last official iteration with the MSX Turbo R in the early 1990s. The MSX-4 aims to bring the classic MSX experience to a new generation of users while incorporating modern technology and capabilities.
The development of the MSX-4 was driven by a community of enthusiasts and former MSX developers who sought to create a platform that could run both classic MSX software and new applications. The project was supported by various companies and individuals who had been involved with the original MSX standard.
Technical Specifications[edit]
The MSX-4 is designed to be compatible with previous MSX software while offering enhanced capabilities. Key features of the MSX-4 include:
- Processor: A modern CPU capable of emulating the original Zilog Z80 processor used in earlier MSX models, as well as running new software natively.
- Memory: Expanded memory options, allowing for larger and more complex applications.
- Graphics: Advanced graphics capabilities, supporting higher resolutions and more colors than previous MSX models.
- Sound: Enhanced audio features, including support for modern sound synthesis and playback.
- Connectivity: Modern connectivity options such as USB, HDMI, and Ethernet, allowing the MSX-4 to interface with contemporary devices and networks.
Software[edit]
The MSX-4 supports a wide range of software, from classic MSX games and applications to new software developed specifically for the platform. The system includes an updated version of the MSX-DOS operating system, as well as support for modern operating systems and development environments.
Community and Development[edit]
The MSX-4 has been embraced by a vibrant community of developers and enthusiasts who continue to create new software and hardware for the platform. The community organizes events, shares resources, and collaborates on projects to expand the capabilities of the MSX-4.
