Some preview screenshots and a progress report for the upcoming version of jEnesis has been posted a few days ago. jEnesis is a Genesis emulator written in java created by Stephan Dittrich. Here is some info about the upcoming release.
I bumped the version number up a bit, due to recent progress.
As you can see, i worked on a SH2 core and now the 32X is basically emulated - for the first time in Java as far as i know.
It's actually a bit faster than the screenshots show, but still not really fast enough. 25-35fps on my 1.8GHz Athlon XP.
So i'll be working on speeding it up and fixing some bugs that are still in the SH2 core until i release it.
Head on over to the official site for the screenshots and for older versions of jEnesis. Thanks to Hawq for the news on IRC.
1) Fixed bugs.
2) Some work on Gens32 Antialiasing,maybe more nicer.
3) Added an option to improve the sound quality when playback at 192MH sound rate.
4) Added an option to remix music(Only worked when turn on 192MH imprve).
5) Remove the picture under Gens menu.
1) Fixed a bug in YM2612 when enable SSG_EG.
2) Supported Virtual Space Controller.
3) Fixed a bug in joypad config.Speed up key will no overwrite quick load key anymore.
4) Fixed joypad config delay,make it more suiteble.
No, you're not dreaming, a new version of Gens is out.
But to be honest don't expect many changes from the last (and old) version. See it as a bugfix version.
Gens 2.12b accidently added "fake" support of sega CD save state. I just forgot to desactivate support (which was very partially implemented) before releasing the version.
With Gens 2.14 (you can get it in the download section), we now have much better support of Sega CD save state (thanks to Upthorn, he did the job here), but it's still not really safe to use it as i doesn't work every time.
SGG ENV support was desactived from the YM2612 since it brings severals bugs in the core unfortunatly.
Some others minors stuff were modified, consult the history file to know more about them.
This version is provided by DarkDancer (Thanks ;))
To be honest i don't work myself anymore on the old sources of Gens.
I started a complete rewrite of Gens sometime ago, i don't have many free time but i won't give up on that piece ;) Just be patient :)

2) Rewrite Sound Playback Mode C;
3) Do a little change on config joypad system. Added a delay on select key,So that it can worked with space key correctly.
4) Rewrite Super TV,it's still a WIP verison.
1) Added a SRM manager.
2) Some work on Input stuff,maybe better,or maybe worse.
3) Added logo when start.
4) In the joypad config dialog,set only save the config for current game as default .
5) Fixed Rom explorer,clear sound before scan roms,so that less nose will be happen.
6) Redesigned Super TV render plugin.
7) VI32 supported.For more information, read this topic:
