It is most pleasing to see Kazuhiko Nishi still being active in this industry. I was so happy with his work, among many others. Thank you, Kazuhiko Nishi, and @Sayaka's Digital Attic.
I have no idea how I got here, but how amazing! I am from Brazil! In the late 80s and early 90s, I had a neighbor who was studying computer science at one of the top universities in my state. His father was an electrical engineer and always encouraged him to program. He took a technical course and then entered University. Once a week he would put the msx on the living room table! In Brazil, the MSX representative was a local company called Gradiente (it produced all types of electronic equipment, mainly microsystems, radios, televisions). It was a huge computer!!! At first I thought it was something from another world, but he always showed us how it worked and we ended up learning a lot! We use a cathode tube television. It was incredible! We spent the day programming in Basic! I was around 9 years old and was very good friends with his brother, also my age. I only have good memories of MSX. Today I am a software engineering professor at the university where my neighbor studied. My friend, his brother, teaches theoretical physics at Caltech. I'll show this video to both of them! Thank you very much for posting and long live Mr. Kazuhiko! I owe him the best years of my childhood!
It's amazing how the MSX impacted so many people, and how lucky you were to have had friends and acquaintances who shared the same passion. Thank you for sharing your memories!
MSX was very successful here in Brazil. MSX was part of my life in the 80s and contributed to my professional development. For the first time I saw an interview with the creator of MSX. The Sayaka's Digital Attic Channel is doing an incredible and historic job. Thank you once again.
Sayaka you have tapped the main vain of the technology universe. You have taken your channel from a simple attic space to becoming part of history. Congratulations!
In Japan, they have an axiom, "Business is war." I applaud you SayaKa for doing this interview, there are most people who would never have or take the chance to have the conversation you did. You're doing good work. You keep making the videos, we'll keep watching them. You're such a nerd, don't stop! ^_^
I am very happy to see you persuing what you love to do, sometimes you need to look for other career options for better opportunities to earn, I love to watch your videos, they inspire me so much.
Wow, what a legend. This was surely a big honour for you. I'm so jealous. 😱 Thanks for your videos and the joy you're bringing to us nerds, Eleonora. 👍
What a great interview, thank you Sayaka and Mr. Nishi-san for the interview! I grew up with MSX in Brazil (and a TRS-80 Color before that), so this hits so close to my heart. Love seeing the plans, and looking forward to MSX3!
I grew up with MSX in the 90's and despite the limitations of color and sound, it was fun to program for. Thank you so much for the interview with master Nishi.
Sadly, we didn't get these in Canada. The more I learn about them now, the more I want one. Thanks to Mr. Nishi-san for the interview and to Eleonora for bringing it to us.
Yes, I am late(Born in 1999 ) for the MSX series, but I used it and played it(MSX Sakhr SA Ver), learned how to use a computer, and even Learned some basic language and played many games from Japanese developers like Penguin and Arab developers like Sakhr Games and I am playing them on retroarch and searching the Treasures that I have not played it before. My first Computer as a child was an MSX, and this is my gate to Computer Science I want to say thanks to Kazuhiko Nishi and I am happy to know him and Sakhr Company and thank you Because you introduced him to us to know him.
I bought a Spectravideo SV-328 when it came out in 1983 and it was the predecessor of MSX. I remember the manual talking about MSX compatibility. Expansion port was changed for the later model that fas fully MSX.
I had the same computer back in the day, an MKII (and still have one), I had it expanded to 128KB with a floppy drive, a Centronics printer port and drawing tablet. Programmed a lot for it. I still have the hardware Colecovision and MSX emulator expansions for it. It was a very nice machine at the time.
As an aside, it's fascinating to watch people with nervous tics when they get comfortable and begin flowing with their interests. He began almost paralyzed by his tics, and then as he grew comfortable with Sayaka you see him and his power as he was at his peak.
This is amazing, I just stumbled across your channel recently and have been hooked on every video you've made. So much knowledge, so much respect for tech and it's history. I'm here to stay.
Bravissima Sayaka, continua così! Bello vedere che il tuo canale sta crescendo e diventando internazionale. E, come insegnante di lingue, permettimi di farti i complimenti per il tuo inglese. Pronuncia molto buona e buona anche la fluidità con cui ti esprimi. Vai così!
Interesting and great to interview him. I understand his frustration at not winning on a product as mentioned near the end. I worked in the team for magneto optic disks for many years. We did bring a product to market but it did not become dominant.
The memories!! when I was a kid I had access to the family's home computer, the msx philips vg-8020, I still remember the konami sport games I had on disk and the many games I bought on tape (there were pirated versions legally sold in the newspaper kiosks 😂 ) Grazie Eleonora e in bocca al lupo, il tuo canale è fantastico!! 💪💪
How great that you get to interview such pioneers such as Kazuhiko Nishi:on your channel, such an honour and great content for you YT. Very interesting interview.
Wow, interviewing one of the legends of computer history, Retro Gamer magazine must be jealous 😄I was already watching your channel, but hopefully this video will give it the growth it deserves. Hopefully you will be able to interview more of these pioneers of computer history. The MSX was indeed very popular in the Netherlands and still has a lot of active fans here.
Brilliant stuff, I'm an Amstrad guy but these tales from the people that made them are awesome, great audio on both sides too, it's not something that everyone nails
Great video Eleonora! Always a pleasure to hear the people who were involved in that period of the 80's. I Remember a discussion over the years what MSX actually MSX stands fo? I hoped you would ask the master himself...keep up the great work.
As an Italian I still struggle to believe I am watching something that happened in Italy being reported in English by a countrywoman, besides computer science not being exactly popular over here. There's definitely value in what you're doing.
Thank you very much sharing the video. Though I didnt understand all interview even with auto-translation,I enjoyed it. Mr.Nishi is soon going to present a report about the devcon in Pisa,so I hope I will know more about future MSX. Best wish to Mr.Nishi and you.
Thank you for your kind message! I'm really glad you enjoyed the video. I’m aware that Mr. Nishi is preparing a report about the Pisa DevCon and I’m looking forward to hearing his insights as well!
Great interview and interesting stories and facts about MSX. I remember reading some articles about MSX standard in the 80's, and neighbour kid had Spectravideo, I think 328 or 728, can't remember, which I guess is MSX computer, but we just played some games with it, until he got the usual Commodore 64, and played with that then. Sony HitBit was one MSX computer I remember looking at computer stores, kind of interesting looking computer. I wonder if Mr. Nishi ever visited Finland, while traveling all over the world :)
Wow! A wise Japanese computer professor that was thinking at that time so ahead of his age and so beyond corporate policies and shit... When every damn company was fighting to own the market he developed a protocol to make them have peace and work collaboratively, too bad the US companies did not follow although Microsoft was behind it too and gave themselves the death sentence including IBM for wide audience consumer computers... MSX iterations were very cool devices strongly reminding HIFI components most of the Japanese manufacturers made at the time and looking really cool and futuristic compared to the US or UK home computers that were looking like fat keyboards with a power supply brick, low quality construction and really expensive especially IBM-Apple(higher quality but yeah..) gear. Excellent interview Eleonora, great work at the meeting and very cool information for a not that well known piece of computer history, here in Greece I believe we did not have them at all back in the day. Cheers keep up! Jim.
The MSX is a strange but quite interesting Computer. Even when I was starting something on the computer, beginning was Win 3.11, I heard and have seen the C64 as a kid. But the MSX was a really nice thing I've heard after many yeaars thx to the Internet. So the Interview was pretty impressive :D

Hi Eleonora, i was at the DevCon, thanks a lot for the translation and your conferenvce was perfect
西さんのインタビューが観れて嬉しいです。アップロードしてくれてありがとう。
子供のころ、SONY のMSX2を手に入れて私はパソコンと出会いました。その時の印象は今でも忘れていません。
Another great interview. You are doing good work by documenting these historic figures of the early computer age. Thank you.

This is a great interview. Im from south America and one of my first computers was MSX. It was a great computer
I bought a Spectravideo SV-328 when it came out in 1983 and it was the predecessor of MSX. I remember the manual talking about MSX compatibility. Expansion port was changed for the later model that fas fully MSX.
I had the same computer back in the day, an MKII (and still have one), I had it expanded to 128KB with a floppy drive, a Centronics printer port and drawing tablet. Programmed a lot for it.

Thank you. Amazing interview. It seems that Nishi still believes in the MSX. I suppose he plans to extend the standard for video.
Good questions 👍 he looked happy to answer them and tell his life stories
As an aside, it's fascinating to watch people with nervous tics when they get comfortable and begin flowing with their interests. He began almost paralyzed by his tics, and then as he grew comfortable with Sayaka you see him and his power as he was at his peak.
Making this video available in Portuguese was great!
If you can do it in other videos, that would be even better.
Tous mes respects. Le MSX est une pure beauté.
Thanks!
Thanks to you for watching the video and for the support!😄
Hi from Houston Texas USA
Thank you very much
Enjoy your channel very much!!!!
Great interview. I grew up with MSX in Japan and Mr. Nishi is a legend.
Thank you for the great intervie. Get well soon for his dry.eye wand drop water.

Great Interview!
An amazing opportunity, thank you for doing the interview with Nishi and also helping more people understand about the MSX Standard.
Amazing interview!!! Wow. Mr. Nish is so intelligent and forward thinking... also super interesting to hear about his woes about CD and DVD.
That was a great interview. I like that you had the guts to interview Kazuhiko. Amazing work :)
Thank you for this. I've always been interested in this. He is a role model continuing to always keep his self current on technology and innovative.
We can tell that you are a little nervous in the beginning of the interveiw and that's so cute and relatable 😍😂
Thank you so much, Mister Nishi, for all those hours spent having so much fun and enjoying my Yamaha YIS-503 😍
Great..............saludos Mundomakina
Great and very interesting interview as always
Great interview! I loved my MSX’es. Glad to have lived through this great starting age of computer development.
I joined your channel! I really appreciate your hard work!
Thank you so much! Glad you like my videos!
Amazing information. I had no idea the impact that Kazuhiko had on the world we know today. I wish I could shake his hand

Though probably the base model. Id like to get the Sony one if I can
