Description : Genesis/Mega Drive, Sega/Mega CD, Master System, Game Gear and SG-1000 emulator
Genesis Plus GX is a Sega 8/16-bit emulator focused on accuracy and portability.
The source code, originally based on Genesis Plus 1.3 by Charles MacDonald, has been heavily modified & enhanced, with respect to initial goals and design, in order to improve the accuracy of emulation, implementing new features and adding support for extra peripherals, cartridge & systems hardware.
The result is that Genesis Plus GX is now more a continuation of the original project than a simple port, providing very accurate emulation and 100% compatibility with Genesis / Mega Drive, Sega/Mega CD, Master System, Game Gear & SG-1000 released software (including all unlicensed or pirate known dumps), also emulating backwards compatibility modes when available.
This ITP is for the libretro core (it does not have its own frontend, like in Game Cube), thus you'll need a libretro frontend to run it, like RetroArch.
