KGen

right KGen (1997) was Steve Snake's very first SEGA Mega Drive/Genesis emulator and also the first one in the KGen-Series. It was programmed in 1997 and not only was the first (and at that time the only) emulator with decent compatibility and real Yamaha YM2612 (The FM-Synthesizer-Chip of the console) emulation. It only runs on DOS systems (Also on Windows 9x and the DOSBox-emulator.)

There were two later versions of KGen. KGen-X, a rewrite of KGen which was never released, and KGen98, a complete rewrite of KGen with lots of new features and redesigns.
