Micom BASIC (JP)

Micom BASIC (マイコン BASIC; Microcomputer BASIC) was a Japanese multi-format magazine dedicated to games and programming. They published type-in program listings, tutorials, playing guides, and information about how some games were developed. The first two issues were published as an occasional magazine called Micom BASIC: Computer Game Collection (Mar 1982 & May 1982), then it was produced as a monthly magazine from Jul 1982 onwards.

The Super Expander programs in this magazine require the Japanese VIC-1211M Super Expander cartridge, available here. They will not work with the VIC-1211A Super Expander.

Japanese VIC-1001 computers have a Katakana character ROM and different keyboard layout (see here). In particular, the pound key (£) is replaced with a yen key (¥). This means that program listings use an inverted yen symbol for Ctrl+3 (red), instead of the normal inverted pound.
