The Sharp X68000 was a Japanese personal computer produced between 1987 and 1993. Commonly known as the X68k, it came in a striking double-tower case and was an extremely powerful machine for its time. Unlike its main competitor the [[PC 98]] (as well as being the polar opposite to the [[ZX Spectrum]]), the X68000 was designed to be as much a gaming machine as a business machine; the original model came bundled with ''[[Gradius]]''. [[Capcom]] used the X68000 as the prototype and the basis for its SDK unit for the CPS Arcade board, and many of the X68000's releases were [[Arcade Perfect Port|Arcade Perfect Ports]]s.
