Other than the MG and MG2 what other roms are good for the msx?

I never had msx and therefore have no idea what good games are out there.

please tell me also whether they are MSX, MSX 2, or MSX 2+

Contra, Antarctic Adventure, Nemesis (all of them)
I believe that they're all MSX1.

Lots of good arcade ports on MSX: Galaga, PacMan and Ms. PacMan, the whole Gradius series, Parodius, great versions of Arkanoid and Arkanoid II, Yie Ar Kung-Fu.

Also some interesting versions of other games, Pitfall, Thexder, and Metal Gear are very different from their counterparts on other systems. MSX Thexder is considered the superior version

Original MSX Games of note are: King's Valley I & II, Arctic Adventure, RedZone, Return of Jelda (shooter, not Zelda), F1 Spirit, Aleste.

Visit MSX Resource Center for lots of great MSX information!

You should also try Lode Runner. It's way better than the one on NES (gameplay wise). Don't bother getting it though if you have it for DOS.
