Just for my understanding: Do you scan auctions from every Ebay Country Site or only certain markets (like US, JP)?

Hi, I wonder when the first price records will show up? I would have expect some entries, because many MSX related ebay auctions were finished in the last few days...

Hi, thats fantastic news. Thank you for your efforts so far.

Some improvements for the future:

1) There were MSX2 PAL (Eurpoean) versions of some games, sadly, the list we used did not listed them seperately. For example, Konami released many of their titles in Japan and in Europe (these were MSX1 and later MSX2 titles). From a collectors point of view, one or the other version may be more valuable.

The differences between these version are mostly in printed language on the cartridges, manuals and boxes, sometimes more obvious (Different game title: "Gradius" series was called "Nemesis" in Europe).

If you like I can provide an update on the Konami titles that lists both versions (if exist).

2) There are releases of Konami titles by other companies, same Title, only published by Sony or Casio (for example).

I also can check the current list for these special releases.

3) Some well-known MSX titles are missing on first sight: the Ys series, Xak series, Space Manbow, Columns, SD Snatcher....

Hi, I would suggest to filter out all releases after 1994 in that list. If you sort the list by year, you can see that there is a gap between 1994 (the end of "official" releases and 2002 (the begin of european fan releases). 

Hi, sorry, I don't want to post my mail adress here. Can you look it up in my account info?

I managed to export the content of the RomDB:

Some comments / suggestions for the import of the data:

- The exported list contains ROM images for the MSX, many of them represent "real", commercial games of the 80ies and 90ies. But it also contains entries for "fan-made" games, tools, demos or even ports from other platforms (coleco). I think they should be filtered out, but its a bit difficult for me to figure them out.

- The list contains country information: How would you fit these in the suggested EUR / JP scheme? For example the Arabic / Kuwaiti or the Brazilian releases?

Hi, how can I get contributor privileges? I really want to support you at this point.

I fully agree with Fayez!

Why do you want to start wiht Japanese MSX games?   The European MSX scene is very active (have a look at www.msx.org),So why not start with the PAL games first? Would make me a very happy man.

I would suggest to have a look at

https://www.generation-msx.nl/

This is the most complete MSX related database I know of.

It contains many MSX games with their different releases too (Japanese, Europe, South America, Middle East)

Maybe the site owner would be so nice to give us a subset of his data as an export?

Hi, can you give me some more details on how the list should look like? Which information do you need?

As some others already posted, the MSX platform seems not very present in the US.

So I would suggest to start with the Europe released games by Konami, which are by far the most popular and known on the MSX platform. What do you think?
