I would give this 5 stars but the developer choose not to support his customers. I want to use colovison roms and the built In keyboard doesn't work for colovison roms. I have no problem with an external joystick but using the built in keyboard for msx doesnt support colovison roms. Msx1 and msx2 roms have no issue with the keyboard. Please email me and I change my review. So if your buying this for colovison roms for using it on a mobile it does not work. You need to map an external joystick but the keyboard works great for msx1 and msx2 roms. Such a pity the mx keyboard doesn't support colovison roms and the description says it does.
Another crappy computer emulator that only works for games and not computing.
Completely incompatible with all the coleco roms I tested. Get ColEm imstead.
Robert's emulators are the best and are so polished. I have never had any issues with any of them on all my devices. If I have had any questions, he quickly responds! Get his emulators, you will not regret it!
While this is primarily MSX it is the best Coleco emu on Android. The Colem one has terrible sound (Try Space Panic, all wrong on Colem) and some games even lag on an Nvidia Shield! This one has MUCH more accurate sound emulation but is not perfect (the digitized voices in games like Squish-em don't work right). Works great on Nvidia Shield with real controls.
I own all of Robert Broglia's emulators, and they are always the best. With a very consistent interface and high compatibility/performance, they set the standard. My only complaint is that he should make more of them!!
I have been using Robert's emulators for a while now. When I switched to Android from iOS these were some of the first apps I bought. His work is excellent. I have been contacting him if I have a question or find a problem. He replies back quickly and works quickly to get the problems resolved. Great work from a great developer.
Plays (almost) every game. GUI somewhat confusing. Have to download the BIOS of the machine(s) you want to emulate (not very user friendly). "Chase H.Q." crashes, even though BlueMSX runs it fine on PC. TOO EXPENSIVE.
the d-pas is not working in s4
I like it. Beats FMSX on everything but looks in my opinion. The only reason it doesn't get the excellence rating is because it won't play Metal Gear. On the other hand it did play Metal Gear 2 flawlessly.
The description says it all! Every emulator made by this developer is excellent and works fantastic!
As the description reads, this truly is an 'Advanced MSX emuator'. Most truthful description of an Android product ever!
Great updates, great buy, will enjoy for many hours to come!
... maybe youll have better luck. I was looking to play a disk (not cartridge) based game through this emulator, which the website claims is possible if you download bios files and copy them to the directory/sd card. No go. Tried to email the guy about it, no response. This emulator didn't work out for me, switched to "the other" msx emulator you'll find on google play, very little complications, works like a charm.
Another great emulator from him.
The experience running this on Samsung galaxy nexus (ICS) is amazing. The emulator has stunning menu overlays and a slick modern layout. Excellent work!
This is trully an excellent emulator - it is slighty over priced, but definitely worth it. The best MSX emulator on any portable device. (incl PSP) Beware! The wiimote option does not work on the Samsung Galaxy S & probably other Samsung Devices.
Amazing! Almost like the real thing. Best dev for emulators.
The emulator runs perfectly, the price is a little high but I'd say it's worth it to carry around these classics with you anywhere you go! Well done!
All I can say is wow! This works flawlessly.
Pretty good, but I would like an option to crop the borders. Also, there's some kind of bug or error that makes the on screen keyboard not work for colecovision games, as well as some games thinking you're holding down the fire buttons once you exit and re-enter it.
