The second generation of MSX computers was released two years after the first generation. MSX2 computers are backward compatible with MSX computers, the mayor difference is in graphics. MSX2 computers have Yamaha V9938 video display processor with 128KB of video RAM. V9938 can display more sprites (32 16-color sprites), more colors and more pixels (512 × 212 with 16 colours, 256 × 212 with 256 colours), and games for MSX2 computers are on another level compared to MSX. Emulator of MSX2 computers is far from finished, but hopefully, several MSX2 games will be available in Pantheon at the beginning of the next year.
