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.

All main Amiga Emulators are based on UAE, the Universal Amiga Emulator that was created for Unix. The Mac has four versions, MacUAE for the Classic, MaxUAE for OSX and the new SDLUAE (Still difficult to install) and E-UAE.

All these emulators need a kickstart file. Kickstart was the Rom of the Amiga. It still has copyright. One can obtain a kickstart by using another Amiga, or by buying Amiga Forever from Cloanto. When one has an old Amiga, it is also legal to search on Google for kick13.zip. MaxUAE has a graphical interface (downloaded seperately), which makes installing easier.

Recently a new version of UAE arose, E-UAE, which has full screen emulation. Together with Hi-Toro (named after the name Amiga inc. had initially), a Gui that even has savable configurations, things are looking up.
