No!No!No! I meant the MSX boards.
They were these 8/16 bit computers akin to old comodore or Amiga.
All the famous Bishojo (and non-bishojo)companies started with games developed for this system. (Nihon-Falcom, Elf, or even Konami.)
They were huge back in the 80’s. Many Megatech games were originally developed for the MSX2 systems.

The only MSX I got close to was the FMSX Emulator. The MSX reminds me of a Sega Master System, NES, and Commadore 64 all smashed together. I also know there is a big homebrew game clique associated with the MSX.

Thought that the preferred platform for the genre was the PC-98, prior to Win 95, instead of MSX ?

Thanks Kagami-san! Now I know what happened to the MSX. (And knowing is half of the battle! )
Now If someone can tell me whatever happened to some of the old companies that used to develop for the system…
(It’s as if they dissapeared suddenly without a trace. I do notice some of their original crew pop up in different companies.)
