After low success with the Sega CD attachment, the Sega 32X add-on was released. It brought a lot more power, bridging a bit of the gap into the 32 bit world of gaming at a low price point... but it was a commercial flop.
The technology made for a massive improvement to the barebones Genesis, especially in terms of processing speed and graphics. The way Sega used this new technology (especially in their handful of console exclusives) made for some very unique visual experiences. Add the CD unit back on and you have one of the most ridiculous combinations of any retro game console!
Be not afraid - There are still a handful of absolute gems in its library.
Special items included: Unreleased titles and prototypes.
Items removed: Non-working dumps, duplicates, prototypes or demos of games that eventually saw a full release, homebrew titles, games that require proficiency in another language to play, and hacks.
Release notes: Doom (32X Resurrection Patch) - This is probably one of the heaviest retro patches there is - It's just mind-numbingly awesome, the amount of work that went into it and just how far it can stretch the Genesis / 32X. You'll find it in the Recommended Patches pack, but check what you're running it on before loading - You'll need ROM bank switching support in whatever emulator or flash cart you use. PicoDrive worked just fine for me.
