MSX on a Raspberry

Source: https://github.com/matheusjgsantos/

A MSX machine for free? No problem in 2021 thanks to the many emulators available. BlueMSX by Meeso Kim is one of the standout candidates, and the software has received ports for Android, the Nintendo Wii the Xbox and the Mac.

Matheus José Geraldini dos Santos wasn't satisfied. He really wanted to have a version for the Raspberry Pi 4/400, and has been struggling for several months with the quite funny task of getting rid of all DispmanX dependencies of the project, as well as raising the SDL version from 1.2 to 2.0.

With the help of the GPIO slot board from Retro Games Store there is nothing standing in the way of species-appropriate keeping of the emulator in conjunction with cartridges.

The open source project is called BlueberryMSX 2.0 Plus and can be found on github.

Give the MSX some love.
