About fMSX - Free MSX Emulator

fMSX is an MSX home computer emulator. It runs MSX, MSX2, and MSX2+ games and other software on your Android phone or tablet. Play MSX games with Bluetooth gamepads, Xperia gaming buttons, Moga gamepads, or iCade joysticks. Save gameplay at any time and restart once you get killed. Record MSX music to MIDI files and use them as ringtones. Play with friends over WiFi or Internet, using NetPlay. Play on a 55" GoogleTV screen, using your remote controller or USB joystick.

* Optimized for Android devices using assembler and 3D hardware acceleration, and running MSX software at the fastest possible speed.
* Full screen portrait or landscape mode emulation, with options for simulating TV scanlines and fuzzy TV display.
* Loads ROMs (*.rom), disk images (*.dsk) and tape images (*.cas).
* Supports PSG, SCC, and FM-PAC (OPLL) MSX sound chips.
* Emulates joystick using touch screen, Bluetooth controllers, physical keyboard, or accelerometer.
* Emulates MSX mouse.
* Supports GoogleTV devices running Android 4.x (Jelly Bean), such as LG G2/G3.
* Supports Moga, iCade, Nyko PlayPad, and other Bluetooth and USB gamepads.
* Supports Xperia Play gaming buttons.
* Network play feature lets you play with other fMSX users over the network.
* State Exchange feature lets you swap saved MSX states with other users.

This is a free, limited version of fMSX that may show ads and nag you to buy the full version. For the full, ad-free version, get fMSX Deluxe. Or, you can buy any one of my other emulators and the fMSX ads will stop.

fMSX package itself does not contain any MSX programs. You should place your own MSX files onto the SD card before running fMSX.

Please, do not run any software you do not own with fMSX. The author cannot and will not tell you where to find free MSX games or other software.

Please, report any encountered problems here:

Otherwise runs DSK MSX 2+ images well with random crashes on some games. Older MSX Cart Roms run ok with lower specs in emulation. Cannot adjust to higher MSX turbo R specs to run TURBO R DSK images. Spam Spam annoying ads. Makes me want to delete application. Fix major problems will give 5 stars. Legitimate issues. Updated to 5 stars. Full version has no ads. Free version is a great but help support.thanks

From the settings menu, input, assign joystick keys, clicking a "left button" gives me "press key once to assign ..." What and where ? There is nothing on screen (the joystick), to see what and how was changed or what to do, only a lock icon. Edit : To map the joystick you have to buy the full version. Developer, be precise and tell us better the differences between the free and the comercial version. Other things, are good.

Testing free version out, sadly none of the .cas roms work which is a shame as most of my faves were tape files. Would buy the paid version of this worked as the other rims work great on my phone

what is the difference between the paid app and this free app???

Good emu and fps is like the original console, but has a problem in controllers, the A fire button do the action of A and B together. Also when adjusting the layout of A & B buttons, the final layout not matching the adjusted one some time, it spaced away from each others, and you have to manipulate to get the final layout the same as you adjusted.

This app is fantastic. Is it possible to have a version for googletv. I believe gtv is x86 based. I have a Logitech revue, fmsx running on my TV with the revue's full qwerty controller is the closest emulation of MSX possible. Please consider, I understand that if u use the ndk, it might not be easy task. Thanks in advance Regards,

Best MSX emulator for Android imho :-) just keeps getting better with every update, this dev knows what he's doing!

by Q####:

Getting better with every new release. Thanks for not forcing to click on ads any longer and for smaller size cursor keys on the screen. Still, not all my ROMs work. Sound is sometimes choppy. When pressing Shift, symbols on virtual keyboard don't change, so you have to type blindly if you need other symbols than numbers and letters. But overall impression is good. Tactile feedback for joystick buttons and cursor keys would be great.
