BlueMSX (MSX Emulator) for Mac
When a ROM game or application is in the database, the emulator uses the databases to apply the correct mapper. If the sha1 value of a dump is not yet in the databases, it uses an automatic mapper detection system, but it can fail in some cases. In this situation, you can manually select the correct mapper.
blueMSX is a portable open-source MSX emulator that uses an emulation model to achieve the highest level of accuracy possible. It is available for the Microsoft Windows operating system and is ported to multiple other systems. It has been translated into 14 different languages. blueMSX includes a powerful debugger with support for several assembly formats and a machine configuration editor that allows advanced users to set up practically any MSX computer system ever made.
Like many other MSX emulators, blueMSX started as a clone of fMSX. The feature that made the first release, in November 2003, unique to the MSX emulator scene at the time, was the addition of monitor simulation. This feature made the video output look like an old TV or a monitor.
A big effort to make the emulator portable to other platforms started in 2007 and since then the emulator has been ported to multiple other systems. The current architecture of the emulator makes it easy to compile to any system with a c compiler and does not depend on any graphics, audio, or user input libraries.
The emulation engine in blueMSX is cycle accurate, which means that the timing and synchronization between emulated hardware components appear the same as on a real MSX. The goal is to replicate each individual component as accurately as possible, which means that the emulator requires a more high end PC than emulators optimized for speed.
Most hardware released for the MSX system is emulated and the emulator includes a configuration editor to mimic real MSX systems by choosing components such as floppy drives, memory, sound chips and video chips. Several pre-configured machines are available for users that don't want to build their own machines.
Common emulator features are supported, like screen shots, AVI rendering, and a cheat system. The emulator has a theme-based GUI with buttons to control the emulation, a virtual keyboard, and controls to change sound and video settings at runtime.
blueMSX simulates six different monitor types, from sharp modern monitors to old TV sets. The emulator has controls for real time modification of gamma, brightness, contrast, saturation and color shifting, and it supports horizontal and vertical stretch, as well as a slider for adaptable scanlines on all monitor modes to make the ratio of the video output match a real system. It also supports multiple video sources, for example an external 80 column card.
RuMSX was one of the first MSX emulations for the 32bit Windows platform. The main-problem is that no one of the existing emulators is really complete. To finish such a project with success it is necessary, that this emulator is FreeWare.
NLMSX is an MSX/MSX2/MSX2+/TurboR emulator that is based upon fMSX 2.0b made by Marat Fayzullin and is being developed by Frits Hilderink, a former member of MSX Computer Club Enschede in the Netherlands.
msxDS is a MSX / MSX 2 / MSX2+ home computer standard emulator for the Nintendo DS / DS Lite / DSi console. msxDS is based on fmsxDS v.0.07 from Nyagosu but since then, several bugfixes and improvements have been added. Moreover, emulation has become much faster.
CocoaMSX is an open source MSX emulator, based on blueMSX, one of the most accurate MSX emulators currently available, with built-in support for 3 virtual systems, automatic download and installation of over 200 MSX systems. You can find all info on pokebyte's github page, and download from here.
fMSX was one of the first MSX emulators to be released, and over the years it has developed into one of the best. In accordance with the wishes of the original author, Marat Fayzullin, this OS X version is shareware software, with a registration fee of $20. I don't see any restrictions with non registered version. You can download fMSX from Richard Bannister's site.
openMSX is an emulator for the MSX home computer system. Its goal is to emulate all aspects of the MSX with 100% accuracy: perfection in emulation. You can find everything you ever wanted to know about MSX, and more, in the Ultimate MSX FAQ.You can download openMSX from it's homepage download area.
PX-68K is a Sharp X68000 emulator. This is a Japanese home computer from the late '80s/early '90s that was used by Capcom as devkits for their arcade games. It played host to many popular games from the likes of Namco, Konami and Capcom.
Ican still remember running the DOS port of ColEm way back in the day (I think I discovered it just as the Nintendo 64 was coming out, so it would have been the summer of 1996). Soon enough after that, Colecovision emulation was pretty much perfected, and development of most of the emulators slowed to a halt.
