Genesis/Mega Drive emulation is very good, with a high degree of game compatibility (many of them claim nearly 100% compatibility with commercial games, including ''Virtua Racing''). They are available on many platforms. Many Genesis/Mega Drive emulators also feature compatibility with the [[Master System emulators|Sega Master System]] (SMS), and the [[Master System emulators|Game Gear]] (GG) as well as earlier Sega consoles. However, Genesis/Mega Drive-based arcade boards and the [[Sega Pico]] are still sketchy. | Genesis/Mega Drive emulation is very good, with a high degree of game compatibility (many of them claim nearly 100% compatibility with commercial games, including ''Virtua Racing'').

MIDI keyboards are used in two special cartridges: ''Miracle Piano Teaching System'', released only in US, and ''Wonder MIDI'', released only in Japan and requires a Model 1 Wondermega (either RG-M1 or HWM-5000) to operate. While MIDI keyboards can be operated with ''MPTS'' as usual, ''Wonder MIDI'' also requires a special disc from the [https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/CD-MIDI CD-MIDI] standard to be inserted, as the software itself is not capable to do interactions with the soundchips of both Mega Drive and Mega-CD. | MIDI keyboards are used in two special cartridges: ''Miracle Piano Teaching System'', released only in US, and ''Wonder MIDI'', released only in Japan and requires a Model 1 Wondermega (either RG-M1 or HWM-5000) to operate.
