Gens
Gens is a Sega Mega Drive, MegaCD and 32X emulator.
It is a feature rich emulator which is very stable, and has
good compatibility. More than 90% of games work flawlessly with Gens.
The software emulates Genesis, Sega CD (iso/mp3, not real CD)
and 32X roms.
The emulator sports an attractive GTK+2 integrated interface.
There are various forks of Gens available. One of the notable
ones is Gens/GS,
