Well, if they're getting ROMs (I've got a lot of ROMs, so I can
play them with ExecROM) or buying CD-ROMs (I've got XTory II), but they are
giving any support to the active MSX user groups, well done, pretty nice!
Almost all MSX emulator users' doesn't buy new software 4 MSX, like
Akin, PA3, Lost World or Pentaro Odyssey. They don't buy Hnostar,
XSW-Magazine or FutureDisk, they don't want to go to a MSX-meeting. Almost
all of them ONLY wants ROM-files of old games, so they can remember 'the
good old days', or they ONLY wants to buy a CD-ROM full of files, like the
XTory series.
Here is the problem.
When I get some time to finish my MSX projects, surely I won't be
worried if they run on a emulator or not...
