It seems based on OneChipMSX, that is from 2006. Just with that I wouldn't really know what I'm buying.

I'd assume it's an FPGA, as per https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1chipMSX

Unless the FPGA is very limited, at least MSX2+ compatibility should be available. I would not be surprised if it could do Turbo R as well.

BTW, I wonder if there are easily available notebook shells for sensible prices that could fit a small ARM board and a reasonable screen. An RPi 5 or some of its competitors can power a lot of interesting emulators, not only for games, but for historical research and preservation.

I have indeed been looking at that and there are nice 3d printable ones and, which is easier but less customizable, very cheap old laptops.

I would expect injection molded ones to be available. There are lots of small laptop manufacturers and integrators that would procure these parts.
