Review[edit]

For its time, it was a decent emulator. It was even used to help develop the last commercially-released Genesis game, Frogger.[1] Modern emulators are much, much better, however. It is not very accurate due to needing to run on much weaker systems than currently available. Use only for curiosity purposes in DOSBox.
