Genesis emulation is very good, with a high degree of game compatibility (many of them claiming nearly 100% compatibility with commercial games, including Virtua Racing). They are available on many platforms. Many Genesis 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. Genesis-based arcade boards and the [[Sega Pico]] are still sketchy, however. ==Emulators=={| class="wikitable" style="text-align:center;"! scope="col"|Name! scope="col"|Platform(s)! scope="col"|Latest Version! scope="col"|CD! scope="col"|32X! scope="col"|[[Sega Pico|Pico]]! scope="col"|[[Libretro|Libretro Core]]! scope="col"|<abbr title="Free/Libre and Open-Source Software">FLOSS</abbr>! scope="col"|Active! scope="col"|[[Recommended Emulators|Recommended]]|-!colspan="10"|PC|-|[[BlastEm]]|align=left|{{Icon|Windows|Linux|macOS}}|[https://www.retrodev.com/blastem/changes.html {{BlastEmVer}}]|{{✗}} ||{{✗}} ||{{✗}} ||{{✓}} ||{{✓}} ||{{✓}} ||{{✓}}|-|[[Exodus]]|align=left|{{Icon|Windows}}|[http://www.exodusemulator.com/index.php/downloads/current-release {{ExodusVer}}]|{{✗}} ||{{✗}} ||{{✗}} ||{{✗}} ||{{✓}} ||{{✗}} ||{{✓}}|-|[[Genesis Plus GX]]|align=left|{{Icon|Windows|Linux|macOS|FreeBSD}}|{{GenPlusGXVer}}|{{✓}} ||{{✗}} ||{{✗}} ||{{✓}}* ||{{{✗}} <ref group=N name=noncomm>While the source is available, its software license explicitly forbids commercial usage of any kind.

<nowiki>* Available exclusively as ==Overview==To run any program, an operating system needs to be installed in 86Box first. It has a libretro core<[[Dynamic_recompilation|dynamic recompiler]] that gives accurate Pentium/nowiki>II support. It can also emulate numerous 2D and 3D cards. 86Box has now introduced a new GUI on Windows. This GUI is much more reminiscent of something like Virtual PC 2007 or VMware than the PCem UI, so users of those bits of software should feel more at home now. ==Image support== ===Floppy===*IMG, FLP, HDM, BIN (Basic sector floppy images)*IMD, JSON, TDO (Advanced sector floppy images)*FDI (Flux floppy images)*86F, MFM (Surface floppy images) ===Hard disk===*IMG (Raw hard disk images)*HDI (Hard disk images used by emulators for NEC PC-98)*VHD (Virtual hard disk images; Support fixed-size, dynamic-size or differencing VHDs)

===ComparisonsCD-ROM===;[[Genesis Plus GX]]:A solid emulator for the Sega Genesis / Sega Master System / Sega CD / Game Gear. The only things it lacks are 32X and Pico support, and a native desktop port. 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.*ISO*CUE:;[https://github.com/libretro/Genesis-Plus-GX-Wide Genesis Plus GX Wide]: Custom fork of Genesis Plus GX available as *Mounting a libretro core, it includes experimental widescreen options. Sega real or virtual 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 isn'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 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 current official release has inaccurate color emulation.;[[GENS]]:Close to Kega Fusion in features and compatibility, but has largely been surpassed by better emulators. There are many different forks and iterations of Gens, so your experience will differ quite a lot depending on which version you use.;[[higan]]:Also developing cycle-accurate Genesis emulation, akin to its very own [[Super Nintendo emulators|SNES emulator]] bsnes. It's promising but incomplete. However, it can be used in the latest builds.;[[MAME]]:Has the parent drivers <code style="color:green">genesis</code>, <code style="color:green">sms</code>, <code style="color:green">gamegear</code>, <code style="color:darkred">segacd</code>, and <code style="color:darkred">32x</code>.
