Back in the 80s my Dad took me to a computer shop in Croydon and we came back with a Sony Hit-Bit (I wanted an Amstrad or a C64 like my mates). He did a lot of work with Japan and travelled there many times a year & always bought back a load of games. The Hit-Bit eventually died and a few more MSX computers took is place, a UK spec Goldstar and a Japan spec Sanyo
Fast forward the best part of 30 years and I have cleared out a cupboard in my parents and have loads of MSX games and a couple of computers listed on Ebay. Some are boxed (which means that I probably never played them) most aren't as like any other kid I ripped the packaging open, threw the manuals away and just played. A lot of the games are in Japanese and I struggled to understand how to play them.
Time for me to get rid of something that I'll never use and raise some cash for my family.
I'm sure there will be some bits of interest to folks here. Links below:
