For all you N64 lovers and Mac users: Sixtyforce

There is this program called sixtyforce (http://sixtyforce.com) which allows you to play Nintendo 64 games on your Mac, but the main problem with this program has been trying to find games.  This is no longer the case.  I have uploaded a .zip folder on Megaupload with nine games (http://www.megaupload.com/?d=895SVQWB) and if you have any other games you would like to see I can upload them, too.

Happy gaming!

Mario Cart is in the .zip folder and I can try and upload Banjo Twoie (if that is the right spelling).  You should be able to play it with two players on your keyboard or XBOX controllers.  If you do use your XBOX controllers, you will have to download some plugins (instructions are in the "Read me" file).

you can play without registering and yes you can play with a keyboard.

theres a controller setup on there to see what keys go with what n64 functions and whatnot.

some games work fine with the keyboard others not as well.

Zelda works well with the keyboard

Harvest Moon: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=XN7HFP7E

Starfox 64 (sixtyforce's defualt audio plug-in is not compatiable with this audio, so you can do three things - 1. Mute your computer, 2. Go to "Preferences" and select the option that says "Use high quality audio processing (will most likely create lag) or 3. Try and find a different plug-in): http://www.megaupload.com/?d=QNVFXOBJ

Try plugging in your controller before starting sixtyforce and then go to "sixtyforce" > 'Configure controllers." The controller should be in the bottom box. If that does not work try http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/29122

Remember 1080 snowboarding... that game was legit. haha

but in all honestly we need a ps2 emulator so we can play johnny mosely mad trix or ssx on tour. That would be amazing. I will see if there is a ps2 emulator. I know of VGS but that only supports ps1 games.

It is not that bad. Also, if you have a XBOX/XBOX 360 controller you can use it to replace the keyboard.

Is there anywhere you can look up all the keyboard controls for the games? 
Or is it just trial and error, hah.

Post right above yours and if you want to do it on your computer:

1. Open "sixtyforce"
2. Click "sixtyforce"
3. Scroll down to "Configure controllers..."
4. Double click "Default Keyboard"
5. A window with all the controls will come up.

This is a pretty good website, but you will need to use a program like UnRarX to extract the files from the downloads from www.get-your-rom.com . If you guys still want me to post download links up I will. On that note, the games requested above will available for download later on tonight.

Depends on your internet speed, but probably 10 minutes (around 120 MB). Next time I will try and compress the files more.
