Sonic Rivals is a racing game just like the previous Sonic games made in the Sega Genesis platform. However, there are many differences between them in the game play mechanics. Sonic Rivals has many elements from the 2D side scrollers and Sonic games that are made in 3D graphics. To move, use the analog stick or D-pad/arrow. To jump, press the (X) button. To attack, press the (O) button. To activate Power-Ups, press the (Triangle) button. To prepare before the homing attack press (X) twice times. To perform a spin dash, press the Down + (X) button.

The rings protect you from the badniks around. If you are hit by an enemy without rings, you will be reverted into the previous area. If you conquer a stage, the rings will give you a bonus score. The ring count is displayed on the top left corner of the screen. You lose 10 rings each time you get hit by an enemy. The Ranks is a performance meter that shows how good you perform in a stage. The lowest rank is C-Rank and the highest rank is S-Rank. The ranks are counted by the number of jostles, power-ups, rings, and boosts that are used by you to complete a stag. The race time is shown on top of the screen. The distance meter indicates the distance between you and the rival. The rival arrow indicates the location of the rival if he is not appearing on the screen. The position is displayed on the bottom right corner of the screen. It shows your winning position in the race, for example, 1st or 2nd place. The boosts appear through the stages and can be identified with a X or O icon. If you press X on a boost, you will perform the Air Boost which is a vertical boost. The vertical boost helps you to get to higher places in the game. If you press O on a boost, you will perform a speed boost, which is a horizontal boost. The horizontal boost let you dash against the rival and defeat them. The jostle is performed by pressing the O or homing attack button.

Im not actually a 100% on this as its not what i would do but.....
If you laptop has a TV Card, linke a scart at the back, than you should be able to plug your genesis in and it would be like playing on a small TV.
What i would do is download a 'Emulator' and get 'Roms' of the games you want so you could play away on your laptop without draggin the Genesis (we called them MegaDrive in this country) around. You wouldnt be able to use the Genesis controller but you could just buy a basic USB pad.
You can get Roms/Emulators here
