A slight update called the Sega System C2 was introduced in 1990. This hardware is based on the Genesis hardware, the main cpu, the sound cpu and the graphic processor are the same. The main cpu is just a bit faster (10Mhz instead of 8Mhz) and there is no Z80, the sound chip is driven by the main cpu. The dac is also replace by a uPD7759. The Columns game manual refers to the hardware as Sega System 14. For more info: segaretro.org/C-2Sega_System_C">C/C-2</abbr>]

;[[BlastEm]]
:Aims for cycle accuracy but unlike Exodus, aims for lower system requirements and has substantially higher compatibility. Latest stable release is quite old, use nightly or libretro core. [https://old.reddit.com/r/emulation/comments/b6ktic/blastem_genmd_emu_062_released/ejlgfi0/ The "Nuked" core that can be optionally used in Genesis Plus GX provides more accurate FM emulation than what's in BlastEm at present] but BlastEm's own implementation is solid too and differences are mostly inaudible. Both are way better than the widely used old MAME emulation, which is the default option on Genesis Plus GX too because it's fast.
;[[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 EmuVR support, shaders, dynamic sync, and other enhancements. The version used in [[BizHawk]] adds features for speedrunners but only the version used in [[RetroArch]] supports [https://github.com/nukeykt/Nuked-OPN2 Nuked OPN2 cycle-accurate Yamaha YM3438(YM2612)].
:;[https://github.com/libretro/Genesis-Plus-GX-Wide Genesis Plus GX Wide]
;[[PicoDrive]]
:Strongly prioritizes performance over accuracy. Compatibility and accuracy aren'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 gamesbut Libretro and BizHawk version doesn't have a stylus or turn page support, while the obsolete standalone version does.
;[[higan]] / [[ares]]
;[[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 Kega Fusion has high compatibility, is easy to use, and has plugin-based filter support but it is no longer updated. It has been surpassed by better emulators and also has some issues on newer versions of Windows which can be solved with compatibility settings.
