Spectrovideo

[David Baldwin]

I have a Spectravideo SV328 II and the SVI MSX 606 game adapter. It has the cord and three plug ends

for tape loading and saving Can i load MSX games by MP3 from of the web if go looking and load that

way by tinkering around, There are green blue and black plugs those old airphone plugs.

Pretty sure 328 isn't quite MSX-compatible, but my memory may be failing me...

Using the SVI-606, you can load up to 16K of MSX programs from tape.

The 606 has its own keypad, own tape inputs and own joystick ports. I wonder if it isn't an entire MSX computer that simply outputs an image that is overlaid on top of the 328's image as the VDP chip supports that. Not sure about sound, as the 328 has SN76489 and the MSX has AY-3-8910 series. The two chips are similar, but the AY is kind of a superset of the SN. My bad, the 328 indeed has AY sound.
