Got this fan release today. The game Illusion City for the MSX Turbo-R. One of the very few games for that system. Made by legendary developer Microcabin. Now fully translated! Boxes and put on a cartridge by Outer Heaven. Loving it 🤩 #msx #msxturbor #fanrelease

On days like these it is a real privilege to work in The Hague University. In the morning we had student Teams pitching their games for the GameLab. In the afternoon playtests of various games. Awesome to see all that talent & creativity!

Had the privilege to talk at the HKU last week. Topics were the @dutchgamesassociation.nl and OSM. It was a lot of fun! HKU produced a lot of successful game devs over the years.

MSX2 is 40 years old this year! To celebrate this, there will be an amazing event in Amsterdam: MSX2GOTO40. If you've ever owned an MSX, then this is for you! With (Japanese!) guests, games, music and hardware.
It is selling out soon, but there are still a few tickets left.

A new MSX2+ machine for my collection: the Panasonic A1-FX.
It's just a beautiful piece of late '80s tech and design, from Japan of course. 🤩

For the Dutchies among us: it's holiday season. Read this book: SCOREN!
It's an honest story about a game studio that started from an attic room and through stumbling, falling and getting up again, finally made an exit.
Buy it at Bol or Amazon or ask for it in your local bookstore.

This Sony HB-F5 is the latest addition to my MSX collection. A Japanese MSX2 with a gorgeous keyboard. It is unremarkable in every other way, but I just love the design.
