Comparisons

  • 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.
  • 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.
