MacRetro

All your retrogames, on the Mac

Do you remember begging for a quarter to play Pacman just one more time, or playing soccer on your Commodore 64. Maybe you always played on your GameBoy on the subway. Finally there is a site for this notalgia: MacRetro. On this you can find anything for Emulating old games and arcade machines on the Apple. It is dedicated to the love of classic games and the time that games were about gameplay, and not about graphics. On all emulators you can find all emulators available for the Mac. In the virtual arcade you can play some classic games online. On the genre page (under construction) you can find your favourite shoot'em up, football game or adventure.

The Amiga games market was in the beginning of the 90's the most important platform for developing new games. When Amiga couldn't compete anymore a few years later, the market concentrated on licenses, football managers, but fortunately on playability as well, resulting on some very creative and original games: Examples of this are Gravity Power (Pictured), Guardian or Super Skidmarks.

On the Internet there are many games archives:
Back2TheRoots
AncientToys
Atomic Cabage
AtomicLand
All games are stored in Amiga Disk Format (ADF) and readable by all emulators.
Most games are Abandonware, and therefore free to download. Most game music is stored on UnExotica.
