MiiSX is an MSX 1/MSX 2/MSX 2+ emulator for the Nintendo Wii. Based on fMSX-SDL, so far, it's a fairly basic emulator.

Only uncompressed ROM files can be loaded, and there’s no keyboard implemented (so only games that work with joystick will be playable).

  • The emulator can run MSX 1, MSX 2 and MSX 2+ games.
  • Can load DSK and ROM files, from SD cards.
  • PSG, MSX Music and SCC emulation.
  • SDHC supported.
  • Classic Controller and Wiimote supported, as joystick 1.
  • Basic menu, for selecting ROM file, and changing emulated system..
  • Homebrew Channel compatible.
