There are a good 40+ Genesis games on Steam, and the emulation quality is excellent. there's also a few arcade games, but NAMCO/TAITO/ETC are being really stingy with their PC releases

The genesis games on Steam are really just a genesis emulator with DLC (the DLC being the actual roms). Granted, the emulation is really good and the games are cheap enough so I don't mind it, but yea you are paying for roms if you buy them on Steam.

hahahaha no

no they aren't.

most games are made for consoles then ported to pc.

and when you have retro games on steam, games that are ONLY on console, then yeah. they're running in an emulator.

Compilations usually occur on consoles only, due to the nature of the platform. Unless if you mean a sale or something which includes more than 1 game.

I remember when I was a kid that I got a compilation of Sonic games from one of those book catalog sales. But the games were either severely gimped versions or I just couldn't get it to run right on my PC

Was it the Sonic & Knuckles Collection, which had this music due to copyrights with Michael Jackson not being renewed, and the reason why these zones were never considered for Sonic Generations or Sonic Mania (which also explains why the games were never remade, but simply emulated)?
