;[[Genesis Plus GX]]:A very solid emulator for the Sega Genesis / Sega Master System / Sega CD / Game Gear. The only things it lack lacks are 32X and Pico support, and a native desktop port; the . The only way to get this emulator on the desktop is to use the libretro core, which allows for all the benefits of RetroArch like shaders, dynamic sync, and other enhancements. The version used in [[BizHawk]] adds features for speedrunners.:;[https://github.com/libretro/Genesis-Plus-GX-Wide Genesis Plus GX Wide]: Custom fork of Genesis Plus GX available as a libretro core, it includes experimental widescreen options. Sega CD/Mega CD games are currently unsupported.;[[Kega Fusion]]:The project of an employee with previous experience at Sega. Kega Fusion has high compatibility, is easy to use , and has plugin-based filter support but it has some issues on newer versions of Windows which can be solved with compatibility settings.;[[PicoDrive]]:Strongly prioritizes performance over accuracy. Compatibility and accuracy isnaren't as good as Genesis Plus GX but it's useful on very underpowered systems like the Raspberry Pi Zero. Currently the first and only cross-platform option for 32X and Pico games.;[[Exodus]]:Think [[bsnes ]], but for the Genesis. Even though higan is also getting into the Genesis game, Exodus has already achieved cycle-accuracy at the familiar cost of high system requirements. It is the newest Genesis emulator and is far from complete.;[http://aamirm.hacking-cult.org/www/regen.html Regen]:A focus on accuracy as has earned it high compatibility with games, but it does not emulate the Sega CD and 32X. It also allows [[overclocking]].;[[BlastEm]]:Aims for cycle-accuracy but unlike Exodus, aims for lower system requirements. It has substantially higher compatibility than Exodus , but it should be noted that the last and is catching up to Genesis Plus GXcurrent official release has inaccurate color emulation.
