How to Play Retro Games on Your Modern Mac With OpenEmu Macs are finally capable gaming machines these days, but thanks to OpenEmu, they're also killer vintage console emulators. Here's how to get. Available on: Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, mobile devices RetroArch is an all-in-one emulator that is able to run games from pretty much every retro console out there. On the home console front, you will be able to run Playstation 1 games and older, while for handheld game consoles, it supports Game Boy Advance games and older.
The Xbox One is already popular with those who enjoy recent-retro gaming - thanks to its features. However, the console might be set to become even an more appealing, and wide ranging option, for retro-gamers as the Libretro team have now an Xbox One port of early next year. RetroArch is a popular emulator front end which is used by many, Android, iOS, the Raspberry Pi, Wii (U), PS3, and even like the Nintendo SNES Classic to play classic old console and arcade games. The front-end provides an integrated launcher for different emulator - to make RetroArch into an (almost) one-stop emulation platform.
Microsoft removed various emulator apps from its Store when it updated its content policy, so when RetroArch is ready for Xbox One it might not be as simple as heading over to the Microsoft Store and grabbing the app. However, Microsoft doesn't put huge barriers in place to anyone who wishes to install such software; users can activate Developer Mode on their consoles to allow such apps. Enabling Developer Mode on the Xbox One comes at a cost of US$19 for a developer account. No 'jailbreak' required. Later, if you wish to revert and turn off Developer Mode, your Xbox One will have to be run through a 'factory reset'. While the above might be exciting news for many would-be retro-gamers with Xbox One consoles in their living rooms, Libretro still recommends PCs with their even more powerful CPU and GPU options for the best 3D retro emulation.
