Why are none of Sega Genesis emulators able to run Virtua Racing game?

0

It’s the only game for Sega Genesis, for which they applied a special processor called SVP (Sega Virtual Processor), installed in cartridge. It’s used for expanding the graphics capabilities of the console, mainly for 3D graphics processing. Due to lack of documentation for this chip and as its internal memory cannot be read, at present its support in emulators is not possible. Initially, the game Virtua Racing was released on arcade machine Sega Model 1 and only afterwards for Sega 32X and Sega Saturn. All the versions of this game are supported by corresponding emulators for these systems.
