May 13, 2025: How to Play Retro Games on your Modern Mac

The meeting begins at 7 p.m. — so that we may start on time, please arrive at least 5 minutes before the meeting begins.

How To Play Retro Games on Your Modern Mac / video game screens and cartridges for three retro-games: Pac-Man, Sonic the Hedgehog, and The New Tetris

This month’s presentation will focus on video games from past decades (Wikipedia link) and how you may play them once again on your modern Mac.

PMUG president Aric Pedersen will show how the Mac can play classic console games (like the Atari 2600, PlayStation 2 and 3, and Nintendo Entertainment System and Nintendo 64,) games that ran on the iPod, and classic Mac games.

We hope you’ll join us as we not only reminisce about the video games of earlier times, but actually bring them back to life and experience their fun and excitement once again!

The meeting will be held online through Zoom — members should check their e-mail for instructions on how to connect and attend. We hope you can join us. A limited number of non-member audience “seats” at our Zoom meeting are also available on a first-come, first-serve basis.
