Description: Libretro wrapper for Genesis Plus GX
This wrapper makes Genesis Plus GX API compatible with libretro, thus allowing
its use with libretro frontends, such as RetroArch.
.
Genesis Plus GX is an open-source Sega 8/16 bit emulator focused on accuracy
and portability. Initially ported and developed on Gamecube / Wii consoles
only through libogc / devkitPPC, it is now available on many other platforms
through various frontends.
.
The source code, originally based on Genesis Plus 1.3 by Charles MacDonald, has
been heavily modified & enhanced, with respect to initial goals and design, in
order to improve the accuracy of emulation, implementing new features and
adding support for extra peripherals, cartridge & systems hardware.
.
The result is that Genesis Plus GX is now more a continuation of the original
project than a simple port, providing very accurate emulation and 100%
compatibility with Genesis / Mega Drive, Sega/Mega CD, Master System, Game Gear
& SG-1000 released software (including all unlicensed or pirate known dumps),
also emulating backwards compatibility modes when available.
