Emulicious adds MSX Support

The software emulation platform Emulicious has just added support for MSX computer games.  Most MSX1 cartridge ROMs are supported and disk images can be supported if you supply your own BIOS.  Interestingly, the creator Calindro seems to have added this support within just four weeks!

As a note, while Emulicious is a capable emulator, it’s most notable for it’s software debugging features that act as an excellent tool for anyone writing homebrew software for the platforms it supports.  Currently, those platforms are:  SMS, Game Gear, Game Boy, Game Boy Color…and now the MSX!
