Sega360 - Genesis & Motorola 68000 emulator for the Xbox 360

Heres some news of a new Genesis & Motorola 68000 emulator for the Xbox 360 being worked on by GrahamStoneman:

This project is in very early days, and currently DOES NOT PLAY GAMES. The 68000 instruction set is mostly done, but needs thorough testing and performance tuning. I still need to emulate the VDP, and then the sound chip, which is likely to take a good few months.

The reason I'm publishing this project now is to drum up some early interest. It would be excellent if anybody with any experience in emulators, especially the Sega Genesis, could get in touch, and if you want to lend a hand then that would be great too. I looked at porting an existing C++ Genesis emulator, but all the source code I could find was horrendously complicated, and much of it used assembler language which I'm assuming wouldn't work on the Xbox 360 anyway.

My long term goal is to create a Sega Genesis/Master System/Game Gear/Sega CD/32X emulator for the Xbox 360 that runs at full speed and with full sound support, entirely in C#. I'd like to keep the 68000 core as general purpose as possible so that people can use it in other future emulator projects.
