Hey all,........I've been using zsnes for a couple of years now without any probs. Does anyone know what the best megadrive emu. is (I've tried gens and saturne both I can't get either to work using win2k). Also, the reason I want them is to play the classic sonic 2 any ideas where I could find it (p.m.'s welcome ;0)

Been using Kgen for a while and about a month ago decided to check if they had made anything better, so found one called Gens (dont have it with me to confirm, think its on ver 1.60) look it up , you can save games where you want etc....
Dont have a link handy , try a search.

Knock yourself out:)
Ages,Kega and Xega work with w2k and I'm sure some of the others do to. If your very into emulation it's always helpful to have a dual boot with win98 as Gens seems to be the best Sega megadrive emu out there not to mention old dos games.

Works fine for me under w2k but it's been reported on a number of emulation forums that certain emu's are having trouble running under XP or have noticed a slow down in performance;)
