This cartridge looks great. But at that price wouldn't it be easier to just buy a whole MSX2(+) machine?

Especially when you know there are problems with some software (at least with the original Japanese version):

this was done with the V9958

90 USD is expensive?

Well, someone like me buying from europe would have to pay:

350BRL = 108$ (according to today's exchange rate on xe.com)
+45$ shipping
+20% VAT for importing goods outside the EU (this includes the shipping cost)
+ About 5% customs tax on electronics
---------
Total: 188$

Have you tried sending them an email? They don't appear to be active on this forum anymore. He did post the design files here so in theory anybody could make a batch of these carts, but nobody has done it yet.

You can find MSX2 computers for less than 250 euros, sometimes close to $200.

I sent him an email weeks ago, with no response.
Do you have the design schematics? The link in the post does not work. I would like to try to make one for myself.
