The MSX 1 standard was quite a popular system, especially in Japan and Europe, so the next generation of machines, MSX 2, was launched with a significant upgrade in graphics capabilities.
In this series, I am going to look at and play the MSX 2 games in my collection to showcase what the system could do.
In this episode, we look at Aleste by Compile.
