This is a port of Genesis Plus, an open-source & portable Sega Mega Drive / Genesis emulator, originally developed by Charles MacDonald, now running on the Gamecube and Wii through libogc & devkitpro.
Please note that this project is actually more than a simple port and the original core has been slightly modified: with respect to the initial goals, I focused myself on improving the emulator accuracy & compatibility, as well as implementing new useful features and adding support for extra peripherals / cartridge hardware.
The result is that Genesis Plus is now extremely close to the real hardware, can run the entire Sega Genesis / Mega Drive game library and has nothing to envy to the most popular emulators on the PC platform.
The generic (multi-platform) code is maintained through the SVN repository so that other Genesis Plus ports can take advantage of it, and I sincerely hope this emulator can become a reference for open-source and accurate Genesis emulation. If you want to port this emulator to other platforms or have any questions about Genesis emulation, feel free to contact me
