The only thing I really missed was USB ports. This machine is relatively easy to upgrade. It was good enough for some games, but the "out-of-box" machine was pathetic, even in it's day. Macintosh Classic Between September 1997 and May 2005 I was using an Apple Macintosh 6360/160 PPC (the so-called "Multimedia Performa"). The NoSTalgia emulator works for some games, but is a bit awkward to use. So far I have been able to run only a few of these successfuly in Atari ST emulators for Macintosh. The Civilization demo (left) used many hours. The Skate Tribe demo was a big hit with the kids. The freeware Nova was a great shoot 'em up. Various Atari magazine floppy disks were a good source of games. It's shareware, and pretty crippled when unregistered.įrom about 1986-1997, with an Atari 1040STFM computer, favourite games included Populous, Sim City and Gunship, the Apache helicopter sim.
COLECO EMULATOR MAC FOR MAC OS
There is also Mugrat Coleco Emulator for Mac OS X. (Especially the more complex games that use a lot of buttons, like War Games.) It takes a while to set up the gamepad buttons to match the old controlers. The ColEm emulator program for Mac (Classic) and PC helps to bring these old games back. We broke several joysticks during heavy use. The original Coleco contollers were just about useless for most games compared to a joystick. Other favourites were Time Pilot, Pitfall, Cosmic Avenger, and War Games. It's still one of the best driving games ever. The great four-player car racing game Pitstop kept the Bradley Street crew occupied for hours at a time.
I've loved playing computer games since I bought a ColecoVision console with the Atari 2600 expansion module back in the early '80s. TOXICO'S HOME PAGE: Favourite Computer Games Favourite Computer Games
