Philips NMS 8220 HELP!!!

also there are din cables that split to composite "tulip" cables...2 audio 1 video...

Ehh but still the least attractive philips msx2...not much memory as I remember... looks like the 8020 but then grey with orange on it

Yep, but it's attractively priced and i only use MSX's to play carts, so it doesn't really matter. I also hate 3.5" disks, because they just keep losing all their data, so i have no need for a disk drive either. And after all, it's A LOT better than the SVI-728 that i'm currently using, the damn thing won't even play all the sounds from Nemesis 2.

And if i wan't to get a better MSX2 someday, i will be able to sell this machine here in Finland with a minimum of 100% profit. There hasn't been an MSX2 for sale on finnish auctions for almost two years, so they are pretty wanted at the moment. Even getting a decent non-SVI MSX has been pretty hard lately.

EDIT: Damn! I just lost the auction. Went too high for me as shipping alone is 21e and i have better use for my money. Someone seems to want this machine pretty badly.

8220 aren't as common as 8235, 8245 or 8250s. I guess that's the reason the price went too high for you. But why don't you try placing your bids on a 8235? Has an adjustable kb, simple sided diskdrive (which you don't need to use), 2 cartridge ports, SCART out, 2 joystick ports, 64kB memory, 128kB VRAM. It's the ideal machine to play cart games on.

Ohw, I forgot the main advantage: they're cheap, 'cause no-one wants them (mainly because they lack enough memory and the single sided FDD). Good luck!

and has msx designer by a koene built in...

though I find 55 euros exaggerated :X...d-tail is right,aim for the 8235... that will guarantee a lot more fun, and shouldn't be expensive... 25 euros should be possible I think........right?
