onpon4: Thanks; that makes sense. I'm aware using 2-4th gen emulators is a very "tiptoeing the line" thing. The ROMs themselves are not FOSS, but the software that plays them can be. The reason I made this thread was because I was wondering what made the folks at Trisquel pass FCEUX, ZSNES, and even a Nintendo DS emulator (DeSmuME)... but not a Mega Drive emulator. I'm thinking now it's just a "didn't think of it" thing since the SNES is more well-remembered from that generation of consoles, and Gens/GS isn't the most well known Mega Drive emulator besides.

I see where you're coming from. Perhaps I can look for "clones" for some games, or similar play-style-wise games, but many have no FOSS peers as it stands.
