How to improve the play speed?
There's probably not much that can be done. Dynamic recompilation (or perhaps even static recompilation, considering that most of these games are fairly small) could perhaps help a bit. Or overclocking of your Genesis.

In the end the Genesis just isn't a very fast machine. Even on the Gameboy Advance, making a playable NES emulator was quite a technical feat, and the GBA has a much faster CPU than the Genesis.

Paint racing stripes on the console to make it go faster. :wink:

EDIT: Oh, by the way, the emulator doesn't work on real hardware. It just sits at a blank screen where the same file runs fine in Gens/GS. Probably an odd address problem, like usual.
