I helped for the battles and reading the dialogues but he did all the exploring by himself. He’s so thrilled, but also sad it’s over. Now I’m hesitant between Pokemon FireRed (he loves Pokemon but that a lot more text to read) or PaperMario TTYD (but we don’t have a switch for the remaster version). Any other ideas for the next game. He loves RPG style games where you get to think and explore more than reflex/speed based games.
It’s my old work MacBook. He’s using OpenEmu (easy to use interface) but may switch to RetroArch/Dolphin
What about a MacBook is not optimal for retro gaming?
Beautiful screen, excellent battery life, GNU-centric OS, possibly ARM-based arch (depending on model)…
We should all be so lucky!
It’s great! This is an older Mac, so the battery is meh. And Intel based (at least it has a discreet graphics chipset). It has a lot of emulators and you can do a lot of other things on it too. Plus it was free, as it’s my old backup work laptop that was going to be digital waste. It’s getting a few more years of use that way.
Yeah, like if that hurts the experience at all for retro games 🤡
