Read the full changelog

Retro games still retail their charm, even if you cannot play them on a modern computer without an emulator. OpenEmu is a macOS application designed to offer support for multiple emulation engines in order to help you keep all your vintage games in the same place.

Quick to install and easy to use multiple video game system

To help you configure the application correctly, OpenEmu comes with a streamlined setup wizard. Right off the bat, you must specify which video game systems you want to deploy. Keep in mind that this is not the complete list: these are only the cores that require user confirmation.

The next step is to allow OpenEmu to scan your Mac for ROM files located on your computer: this way the app will automatically add your games to the app’s library. However, importing games manually is just as easy: simply drag and drop the game image on top of the OpenEmu main window.

OpenEmu is able to emulate various consoles, such as the Virtual Boy, the Sega Genesis, the Nintendo DS, and more. As a result, on top of being able to organize your vintage games, you are also able to run them right on your Mac anytime you like.

For your convenience, besides the default smart folders, OpenEmu offers you the possibility to catalogue your games into various collections: you get to group the games included in the library any way you like. Last but not least, via the OpenEmu Preferences window you get to quickly adjust the control keys for each supported console.

The path I took to realizing I could just play any old retro video game right here on my old 2009 iMac was a bit more convoluted than it needed to be, but, hey, sometimes life is a bit more convoluted than it needs to be. For example, it wasn’t until I won a flat screen tv while watching the 2020 Super Bowl at my local pub that I started thinking about maybe getting an old video game system to hook up to our first tv in years, which led to me discovering that they now make mini consoles that come loaded with a bunch of games, which led to me discovering that you could also hack those mini consoles to add any games you want, which led to me ordering a Sega Mini right before the global pandemic kicked in and we all went into quarantine mode, which led to me going deep into the rabbit holes of mini console hacking and retro video game Youtube, which led to me writing blog posts about how to hack a Sega Mini and creating lists of games that I find enjoyable to play as an old millennial in the 2020s.

And because hacking my Sega Mini involved me getting a whole sh*t tonne of roms on my computer + getting a USB controller that could work for PS1/PSP and below consoles — I eventually got around to wondering if/how I could play these games on my Mac (although, I first wondered a lot about if it was possible to somehow hook my Sega Mini up to my iMac as an external monitor, because I am an idiot).
