This Wiki section is about all computers or game consoles of the time with hardware close to the MSXs.

This is the minimum required to hope to be able to convert their software. None of these machines are MSX compatible (neither software nor hardware).

Note: Although having a BASIC very close to MSX-BASIC, the Sanyo PHC-25, Goldstar FC-100, Hino CEFUCOM-21, Seiko MAP-1010, etc are not close enough to the MSX computers. PSG is the same but Z80 frequency and VDP are different. Those are NEC PC-6001 compatibles.
In the wiki of the site you can also find the list of hidden MSX devices which is that of machines/devices based on an MSX computer.
