|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| BRMSX | Download | 1.160 | 4/26/99 | DOS | This MSX emulator has many options, such as save/load savestates, multiplayer games through a serial port, and has sound implemented, as well as being fast enough to run on a 486/25, being written totally in 32 bit assembly. However, it only emulates the MSX1 at the moment, and has a lower compatibility rate than some of the others. |
| CJS MSX Emulator | Download | 1.0b | 2/15/96 | DOS | This is a fast emulator which was designed to run on any 386 or higher. It has not been updated in a while, however it has sound and basically emulates the MSX quite well. It's definitly worth the download for any MSX fan. |

7/8/96 9/4/97 |
Windows 32 DOS |
This is one of the most complete and most compatible MSX emulators around, with sound and most functions implemented. It emulates the MSX, MSX2 and MSX2+. It is written in C, and is the most ported of all MSX emulators around, with ports for Windows, Dos, Unix, MacOS and AmigaOS. The roms needed for fMSX-dos are available for download from Zophar's Domain. | ||
| MSKISS | Download | 0.2.0 | 2/22/99 | DOS | This emulator is coded entirely in DJGPP C. It's not very fast, but it runs basic 16/32KB images as well as konami MSX-1 roms, ASCII 8KB, ASCII 16KB and original FM PAC. It also supports .DSK files (disk images). It only has sound support for GUS cards. It's not the best MSX emulator there is, nor the fastest, but here it is for your downloading. |
| NO$MSX | Download | 1.1 | 4/27/99 | DOS | This is a new MSX emulator which was created by the author of NO$GMB and NO$CPC. This is a very early attempt to emulate the MSX, and does not emulate the MSX2 or more advanced video functions. Download it if you're looking for a fast emulator with limited compatiblity. |
| Power MSX | Download | 0.03 | 4/08/99 | DOS | Power MSX is a MSX emulator that runs on DOS and emulates a MSX1. It emulates tapes and drives also. It runs on VESA2 with linear frame buffer or VGA and a Sound Blaster. |
| RuMSX | Download (DOS) | 0.16 | 3/13/99 | Win95 + DirectX 3.0+ | This is the newest MSX emulators, and one of the only ones for Windows 95. It has a nice GUI, and the compatibility rate is only a little less than that of fMSX. It currently emulates the MSX, MSX2, and MSX2+. It will emulate the mouse and MSX audio in the future. It's not as advanced as some of the other emulators, but it's worth a download. |
| Virtual MSX | Download | 1.1b | 12/16/96 | Windows 32 | With sound, joystick emulation, and the fact that this 32 bit assembly written emulator runs most games make it a good choice for a good MSX emulator. It's worth downloading and checking out. It comes with its own install program. |
