;[[Model 2 Emulator]] <small>(formerly ''Nebula Model 2'')</small>:Has great compatibility. Most games work without problems, although some configuration may be required for the optimal experience in some titles. It is easy to use and the system requirements are moderate. There is support for increasing the internal resolution, force feedback and GPU hardware acceleration.<ref name="features">http://www.mameworld.info/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Cat=6&Number=277024&page=8&view=expanded&sb=7&o=&vc=1</ref> For a long time it was, and still is for most titles, the only way to play Model 2 games. However; it is Windows only, closed-source and hasn't been updated since 2014. Although the MAME developers have access to the source code, its use of Win32 assembly and emulation "shortcuts" such as a cached interpreter make it unusable for implementation into MAME.

*'''Model 2 Emulator''' was formerly known as Nebula Model 2. It has great compatibility (only one game is unplayable?). Most games work without problems, although some configuration may be required for the optimal experience in some titles. It is easy to use, the system requirements are moderate and there is support for increasing the internal resolution. For a long time it was, and still is for most titles, the only way to play Model 2 games. However; it is Windows only, closed source and hasn't been updated since 2014.

:Nuexzz has also created a frontend, [http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,159733.msg1680224.html#msg1680224 Sega Model 2 UI], for this emulator.
+
*'''[[MAME]]''' is a long way behind Model 2 Emulator in compatibility but is actively developed and Model 2 emulation recently improved greatly. With version 0.196 the first two games were promoted to working status; Virtua Fighter 2 and Motor Raid. Version 0.197 followed up with adding Rail Chase 2. Other games might work but most have lots of graphic glitches and some will outright crash. You'll need a fast CPU for full speed emulation.

It is a way to buy the games as single purchases on PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Xbox One (backward compatibility). The games feature excellent improvements over the arcade originals such as higher resolution, widescreen, HD textures, fewer pop-ups, online multiplayer, trophies, etc. Some of these are playable in the [[RPCS3]] emulator.
