If you don’t have one yet, the Logitech F310 Gamepad is a great choice and reasonably priced around $25, and it’s versatile enough to play with all the retro games as well as modern Mac (or PC) games too. Pull down “Filter” and select what looks best to you, personally I like the “4xBR” setting since it smooths out the jagged edges of pixel art, offering a nice slightly modernized rendition of the retro 8 bit and 16 bit graphics.Įach console emulator has fully customizable keyboard controls available for playing, but you’ll really get the most out of the gaming experience by using a USB gamepad. Open the app, go to Preferences, then under the “Gameplay” tab you’ll find Display Mode options.

To make things look the best, you’ll probably want to change rendering and video filter settings adjustment upon first launch.

If you’re scouting around for game ROM’s, be sure to only download roms that you have a license to or the rights to own, usually that means you own the physical game and the ROM functions as a backup file, though you’ll need to look into individual licensing yourself since it varies. If you don’t have any retro ROM’s laying around, OpenEmu offers a free pack of homebrew games to try out (scroll to the very bottom of the developer site to find it), and other ROMs are usually easy to find around through various places on the web. Games can be played easily by dragging and dropping ROM’s into the app, or by using the app to scan the hard drive for compatible rom files.

Once OpenEmu has been approved by you, you won’t need to do that again.

That can be done easily with a right-click “Open”, or by using the System Preference panel as mentioned in this tip.

OpenEmu works great in just about every modern version of Mac OS X, though you’ll find that the newest versions of OS X like Mavericks will probably need to bypass Gatekeeper to open the application.
