Why do people still use Kega Fusion for emulating Sega Genesis games?

[Xdqwerty Xdqwerty]

There are better Sega Genesis emulators out there

If I had any problems with Kega (and they're few), it would probably have to be trying to run the games in full screen

I still remember Sega was porting their games to Steam and they ran absolutely terrible (and this was pre- Genesis Classics release) and Kega was a life-saver for me when I was just getting back into playing the Genesis

I don't know why some have problems with Kega in modern Windows, perhaps I was lucky?

I haven't tried it since I updated my laptop to something less shitty in 2019 (HP Compaq Presario to Acer Nitro 5) and I'm kinda leery about trying it again

I know, but hear me out. Many people were still using PCSX2 1.6 till they started putting out new stable builds last year. That was some 6 years out of date. They really should.

Hell, I've seen people still use ZSNES *shudders*

Run fusion in compatibility mode with i think selecting windows 7, it's a bug specifically in windows 10 and 11 and easily fixable.

There's a more file level fix but this is the easy way i know of.

There's an issue with SNES9x?

 

[diet_orange]

it also lacks sega cd support, i can live without 32x support but some amazing games showed up on the sega cd.

Sega CD and 3X support I can kind of live without (I don't use them that much tbh) but they are fun novelties for what they are

Confused it with ZNES, my bad

My PC is too weak to use a better emulator and I'm not satisfied with Genesis Plus on openemu for my mac. The sound doesn't feel right with other emulators and there are frame skips all over the place. Kega Fusion is still my best option for Genesis as of now especially since I finally got it to work full screen.

As long as I can make Batman (Sunsoft) move and sound exactly like how I felt when I first bought my Mega Drive so long ago, I'll be happy and Kega Fusion is the only one I've got that does that for now.

Sadly Jgenesis does not have a build for Mac, I was about to recommend it for you.

Exactly! As long as it does what it says on the tin/box, I'm content. I also run a favorites list of titles between my Pocket Go and Everdrive X3 and hardly ever have any problems between the three
