BodyHammer sent us this link for the MSX in the Media challenge, but as the game was released in 2003 it can't be considered a vaild entry. However, this thing is to cool to let go.
The Neo Geo game Matrimelee by Playmore/Noise Factory/Atlus of which you can read a review right here contains a nice reference to MSX. In Arena 5 (The Gamers, Fighting Games for Young People) you can see some people wearing MSX shirts in the background. You can see a screenshot yourself (including the reviewer talking about MSX) on this page.
Interesting detail: Kazuhiko Nishi, the father of MSX, is said to sponsor several freefight contests every now and then.
Well spotted, BodyHammer!  |

That would make no (or at least: less) sense as the theme of the arena is 'The Gamers, Fighting games for young people'  |

I don't give a rats ass, it still says M8X to me.

Screenshots can trick you easily.
Especially since:
1) Screen grabbed from Neo Geo
2) screen manhandled to fit page
3) screen manhandled again to fit MRC page
Don't worry ro, it REALLY says 'MSX' on those shirts |

Wasn't the NeoGeo the one game console which contains some MSX technique further developed from the Turbo-R?
