BlastEm is a Sega Genesis emulator primarily for the Linux operating system that also supports OSX and Windows. BlastEm aims for cycle accuracy, and for lower system requirements than Exodus. Commercial game compatibility is substantially better than Exodus, but still falls short of Genesis Plus GX. It is the only emulator other than Exodus that can properly display direct color DMA demos and to pass all of the tests in Nemesis' VDP FIFO Testing ROM.
