A hidden MSX is an MSX that does not have any MSX badges. In most cases, the MSX-BASIC is hidden in some way, typically by starting directly to a built-in application.

Various video titlers have been found to be hidden MSX computers. There are also a few hidden MSX peripherals.

ATTENTION!

Only buy one of these systems if you know what you're doing.
Generally it is non-trivial to use them as a regular MSX system.
Especially the video titlers are very difficult to use as normal MSX computers.
