Sega Megadrive

The Sega Mega Drive (Mega Doraibu), called the Sega Genesis in North America is a 16-bit video game console made by Sega.

Designed by an R&D team supervised by Masami Ishikawa, the Genesis hardware was adapted from Sega's System 16 arcade board, centered around a Motorola 68000 processor as a primary CPU and a Zilog Z80 as a secondary processor.

Genesis Plus

Genesis Plus features very accurate emulation of the original Sega Genesis, even to the point that some software which has problems on the real hardware (Sonic Crackers, for example) exhibits the same behaviour under emulation.
