Description

The Daewoo DTX-1493FW aka Zemmix SuperBoy is the combination of a television and a MSX1 console in one unit. It was released by the Korean company Daewoo in 1989. All MSX-compatible consoles from Daewoo are called Zemmix that means 'It's Fun'.

The MSX logo does not appear on this machine, and due to the lack of a keyboard it is not compliant with the MSX specification. We can therefore speak of a hidden MSX! According to some rumors that need to be confirmed, it was available in 4 colors: red, white, indigo and black.

This machine has only one cartridge slot and it's not possible to add a keyboard. The MSX video is internally connected to the screen on a "high quality" RGB output. This was appreciated by Korean users who wanted to make quality screendumps of their favourite games.
