Hi, for a while now, I've played a lot of games from the past, on emulators, and I have a question for the forum: What was the last MSX game released (by a serious commercial company like Konami or Micro Cabin)

I've found so far: Illusion city and Seed of dragon (1992) but there must be others?

According to generation-msx database, the two last commercial MSX known games are "Rona" (1994) and "The World Drawing To An End" (2001)

Similarly to the situation in europe/holland, when the commercial MSX support died out in 1993, amateurs started making pseudo-professional software.

I don't think that 2001 game is truly commercial (and btw, the links are seriously broken).

Anyway, if your definition of 'commercial' means 'making a profit', then the Sunrise games released during the 90's are all commercial as well...

Likewise, there have been Gameboy and GBA games commercially released which were created by a 'amateur' team, so it's hard to draw the line, isn't it?

I think making $ *is* the definition of 'commercial' Smile

I think however that with 'commercial companies' we refer to companies that have a number of employees that get payed each month, while the Sunrise-games are basically amateur-games, made without company-employee mechanism, that are simply making some money in the end because of the sales.

I don't remember exactly, but I thought at least Burai 2 was released in 1992 as well...

Judging from the website, it's a text adventure, probably something like Snatcher.
