About this game

Advanced open-source Sega Genesis/Mega Drive, Sega CD, and Master System/Mark III emulator based on portions of Genesis Plus/Gens/Picodrive/Mednafen with a minimalist UI and a focus on low audio/video latency, supporting a wide variety of devices from the original Xperia Play to modern devices like the Nvidia Shield and Pixel phones. Sega CD support is currently considered beta, please do not report game-specific issues with it yet.

Features include:
* Supports .bin, .smd, .gen, and .sms file formats, optionally compressed with ZIP, RAR, or 7Z
* SVP chip support for Virtua Racing
* CD emulation via loading .cue or .bin files (requires USA/Japan/Europe BIOS)
* Supports FLAC, Ogg Vorbis, and Wav audio track formats
* 6-button controller and 4-player multitap support
* Gun support (Menacer and Justifier)
* Cheat code support using .pat file format (same as Kega Fusion, Gens, Genesis Plus GX, etc.)
* Configurable on-screen controls
* Bluetooth/USB gamepad & keyboard support compatible with any HID device recognized by the OS like Xbox and PS controllers

No ROMs are included with this app and must be supplied by the user. It supports Android's storage access framework for opening files on both internal and external storage (SD cards, USB drives, etc.).

this is perfect just like his nes and snes emulators. his snes emulator is free, or at least was when i got it, so if it still is i recommend trying it and if you love it, you'll love them all. i've tried some other ones that were ok, but this one has em beat for be because of how responsive my ps4 controller is when connected. in other emulatotors it works well enough for most games but button input is sometimes laggy or doesn't read a button press at all sometimes.

All of your emulators are of the highest quality. I use them to make music with various retro tracker tools and it is essential that they work well and are reliable and these are absolutely first rate. Thank you for your hard work.

This is a good emulator I one hundred percented Sonic 3 & Knuckles and this is what helped me do that. No problems! Always supported the controllers I tried. If anyone asked me what app they should use to emulate Sonic 3 & Knuckles I would recommend this.
