=== Comparisons ===
;[[Model 2 Emulator]] <small>(formerly ''Nebula Model 2'')</small>:Has great compatibility. Most games work without problems, although some configuration may be required for the optimal experience in some titles. It is easy to use and the system requirements are moderate. There is support for increasing the internal resolution, force feedback and GPU hardware acceleration.<ref name="features">http://www.mameworld.info/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Cat=6&Number=277024&page=8&view=expanded&sb=7&o=&vc=1</ref> 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.:An user, Nuexzz from ArgentinaAlthough the MAME developers have access to the source code, who made the new 2019-edition its use of Win32 assembly and open-source ''Sega Model 3 UI'' emulation "shortcuts" such as a cached interpreter make it unusable for [[Supermodel]]implementation into MAME. :Nuexzz has also earlier created a similarly styled frontend, [http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,159733.msg1680224.html#msg1680224 Sega Model 2 UI] , for ''Model 2 Emulator''this emulator.
;[[MAME]]: is a long way behind ''Model 2 Emulator'' in terms of compatibility, but is being actively developed and Model 2 emulation improved greatly in 2018. With version 0.196, the first two games were promoted to working status; Virtua Fighter 2 and Motor Raid.<ref name="mameupdate">https://www.reddit.com/r/emulation/comments/835vz6/finally_model2_is_working_on_mame/</ref> Version 0.197 followed up with adding Rail Chase 2. Other games might work but most have lots of graphical glitches and some will outright crash. You'll need a fast CPU for full speed emulation.

<nowiki>*</nowiki> '''PSN/XBLA:''' Some games were released for PS3 PSN and Xbox 360 XBLA labeled as the "Sega Model 2 Collection". It is a way to buy the games as single purchases on PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Xbox One (backward compatibility). The games feature excellent improvements over the arcade originals such as higher resolution, widescreen, HD textures, fewer pop-ups, online multiplayer, trophies, etc. Some of these are playable in the [[RPCS3]] emulator.
<nowiki>**</nowiki> '''Ports:''' Some games were ported to consoles available when the arcade games where released. Most of them were released on Sega Saturn och and PC, with a few appearing on Dreamcast and PlayStation 2. These ports are often a lot worse than downgraded compared to the the arcade orginals.
