MSX is a standardized home computer architecture, announced by ASCII Corporation on June 16, 1983. It was initially conceived by Microsoft as a product for the Japanese market, and jointly marketed by Kazuhiko Nishi, the director at ASCII Corporation. Microsoft and Nishi conceived the project as an attempt to create unified standards among various home computing system manufacturers of the period, in the same fashion as the VHS standard for home video tape machines.

MSX是一个标准化的家用计算机体系结构,最早由微软于1983年6月16日提出,并由后来的微軟日本副总裁与ASCII主管构思。有人说这是由微软领导,试图在标准硬件制造商建立统一标准的项目 。 尽管有微软的介入,但MSX构架的机器在美国很少出现,而在日本、韓國、中东、巴西、苏联、荷兰、西班牙以及其他几个小型欧洲国家却非常流行。MSX计算机的销售数量难以估计,但仅在日本的最终销量就超过500万。 在任天堂的红白机出现之前,MSX是日文主要的游戏平台,如科乐美和Hudson Soft就在这平台上生产游戏软件。比如潜龍谍影系列最初就是为MSX硬件而编写。
