I am planning on doing a playthrough with Sonic CD but I heard that Bizhawk doesn't really have a good history with Sega CD/Mega CD games. I am not sure if it has improved but can you play games like Sonic CD, Snatcher, etc. on Bizhawk?

Are you sure? From what I heard Sega/Mega CD games do not work well on BizHawk.

Yes, I am 100% sure. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8NVjKy0v3MU Here is the longplay I created with it by using Bizhawk and TAStudio.

What about the animated cutscenes? Or specifically the opening and ending cutscenes? Can Bizhawk gets those series properly?

Instead of bin or md files for Sega Genesis, Sega CD uses ISO files because it uses CD to emulate games.
Planned runs: Marble Madness (Arcade, Genesis J, GG/SMS) Proposed: Ecco the Dolphin (Genesis, GG/SMS, CD: regular, camera freeze) Ecco: The Tides of Time (Genesis, GG/SMS, CD; normal mode) Mario Kart DS (all cups, all missions) In progress: Grand Poo World 3 (all exits hard mode)
