Jul 20, 2019 Play Old Games WIth Emulation on a Mac. Emulators are another great way to play games on your Mac, though they exist in a legal gray area. Even though emulators themselves are not illegal, procuring games (known as ROMs) that you do not own is.
I have a macbook pro and i want to play this old powerPC mac game called Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis. Seeing as how my computer is intel based, i dont have classic environment. I put the game CD into my computer and it reads, but doesnt allow me to play the game. when i click the icon to start the game, it gives an error message:
'you cannot open the application becase it is not suported on this system.'
i know there has to be a way for me to get this game going. any ideas?
macbook pro, 2.33 ghz intel core2 duo, 2 gb ram, Mac OS X (10.4.10)
