online multiplayer

[oshaboy]

i know online multiplayer isn't on the emulator, but come on it is sega, a company who made the FIRST gaming console that can connect to the internet without an add on, so i think they can put something in the code that allows online game controller

Sega Genesis/Mega Drive never went online...
Also, Sega isn't going to update a 21-24 year old game

SEGA of new is the counter-opposite of the SEGA that we knew and loved.

Bad business decisions and a decrease in production quality lead to the broke company that still exists. Due to their lack of funds, they sacrifice losing their fanbase to cater towards casual gamers.

Due to terrible sales in North America, SEGA will not port certain games over (Phantasy Star Online 2, Yakuza, etc.). It's sad to see them this way; it's like watching someone with some much promise and potential turn out to be a lazy bum at the end of the day.

They wouldn't have to update the games to allow for online play, they'd just have to have two players be connected in the front-end.
Emulators already support Netplay, so this isn't anything unheard of.
All it is, is two players connecting to a server and sending button inputs to each other while both players run the game locally. The game would still be running the original code, the only difference is that the games might desync if a button input doesn't get sent correctly. However, with modern connections this tends to not be much of an issue.
