you mean an officially approved one? ain't gonna happen. There was an NES emulator for less than 24 hours called "Nescaline" that I was fortunate enough to grab in that window, but to get Genesis you'll either have to jailbreak (which already has a Genesis emulator) or download one of Sega's pre-made game+emulator games on the app store (Sonic 1 and Streets of Rage are the only ones at this point).

ohhh, hadn't heard of that, kinda neat, but I would rather a full collection for a set price than by-the-game crap. It sounds like they are just basically expanding on the Golden Axe, Sonic 1, and SOR they already have on the app store.

When I hear someone talk about emulators, I tend to think of the good kind, the kind that lets you play anything in that system's ROM format, not the compilation kind.
