I recently bought my first MSX2 (Panasonic AK MII) and the box art is fascinating.
Rather than showing the computer itself, it depicts reptilian warriors in battle, which seems to indicate that system was eventually marketed primarily as a game machine. Do other boxes do this?

The art looks exactly like the game Ashguine 2.

Maybe the game Ashguine 2 also came with the computer?

Dunno. Could be some promotional thingie... About Ashguine, wasn't that a gamecontest or something? Bit2, Microcabin and T&E Soft all have an Ashguine game.

You once said that yes, but at that time you were under the influence of beer and probably some heroine. Maybe a sane and more stable person knows the real answer. Wink
