Sega CD / Mega CD
Emulator Compatibility List

You are visitor since October 15th 2000 | last updated: January 26th 2002

Current status: 163 unique games tested

Gens 1.60b compatibility: 62,7% (101 of 163 games are playable)
Kega 0.02 compatibility: 62,7% (101 of 163 games are playable)
AGES 0.27a compatibility: 39,8% (64 of 163 games are playable)
Xega 0.10 compatibility: 13,0% (21 of 163 games are playable)

("playable" are games with a green or yellow rating, see below)

The following test environment and emulator options were used:

Computer: Pentium-3 @ 900MHz running with Windows 2000 Professional SP2, DirectX 8.1.

For testing, the model 1 BIOS files of all three regions were used (see "recommended" BIOS files on my Sega CD development page), except for AGES, where I used the European model 2 BIOS 9306 (because the model 1 BIOS doesn't work at all). All games were tested directly from CD, not as ISO or ISO+MP3.

For AGES, Genesis Z80 was enabled.

For Gens, Kega and Xega I left Perfect Synchro mode (Gens, Kega) respectively manual synch (Xega) turned on all the time.

Compatibility with all emulators might be tweaked with using different BIOS versions, different emulator options or using ISO(+MP3) instead of real CDs. However, discussing these tweaks does not lie in the scope of this document. Please do not mail me because of it, but feel free to share that information with others in the Tavern. If you've got any further questions, feel free to visit the Tavern (message board of Eidolon's Inn) and ask them there.

Color codes

green - game is perfectly playable and emulated 100% correctly

yellow - has some minor/neglectable graphics and/or sound glitches, but is playable

orange - has severe graphics and/or sound bugs, or crashes during intro or later in game

red - crashes before or at Sega copyright screen

This compatibility list covers 163 games of my personal collection (made up of 187 games in total). The list is based partly on The Scribe's G3O (see Genesis section of this site) and partly on my own research. Some tiles may not have been released.

When you have finished browsing the list, you might want to go back to the Sega CD section of Eidolon's Inn .
