MSX Tier 1: Welcome to MSX BASIC

The MSX starts strong — with a structured, powerful BASIC that can do real work.

You’ll:

• Load and save programs to cassette or disk using LOAD, SAVE, BLOAD, and BSAVE
• Use SCREEN to switch graphics modes
• Draw lines, circles, and text using BASIC graphics commands
• Explore the MSX BIOS and how it provides hardware abstraction

MSX BASIC isn’t just a beginner’s tool — it’s a powerful gateway to the system’s core.
