Klik & Play is supposedly compatible with the Mac II.

It works in MiniVMac (Mac II).

There's a homebrew MiniVMac (Mac II) port for the Nintendo 3DS.

Therefore Klik & Play can be run on the Old 3DS

I've tried and succeeded at running the Mac version of Klik & Play on my Old 2DS.

Now I can gamedev action games on my Old 2DS.

Mac OS family portrait: 7.5.5 through 10.10.

Which one would you add next?

All have the about windows open showing the versions.

A new build of the Mini vMac emulator brings BlueSCSI disk image support and no longer "pauses" the emulator when your cursor isn't in the window. This is so very useful! 🎉

Big thanks to @nulleric !

Minesweeper because solitaire didn’t place the cards right (probably because of the weird screen size?)

Ha you thought I was done with this silly PocketCHIP? 😅 Let’s run SoftPC!

Following the helpful instructions (biosrhythm.com/?p=2688) and copy of the Mini vMac emulator provided by @paulrickards I've now got a #MacOS #emulator running on my Pocket CHiP computer.

It does seem to be pretty responsive though the screen size is a tiny bit smaller than the standard Mac displays, which can cause problems. Games seem to run fine, applications work as well as they would under #MinivMac and I just can't get over seeing the "Welcome to Macintosh" on this screen 🥰​

New blog post: Macintosh Emulation and Printing using Mini VMac on a PocketCHIP

In this post I go over how I got Mini VMac compiled on the PocketCHIP with LocalTalk options enabled. I also go over how I printed to a real ImageWriter II as well as browsed the web with Netscape 2.0!

Thanks in advance for a boost!

How about browsing the ✨ Internet ✨ on the emulated Mac? 😅

Using MacIPGW here for MacIP. Writing up a blog post about all of this later today!

After making some really sketchy repository changes and doing an incantation, I got some X11 sources installed and Mini VMac actually compiled without issue!

And look! It’s speaking AppleTalk (UDP) on my network!! Hahaha this is so weird to me. Should I print something to my AppleTalk ImageWriter II from my handheld? 😅

Everyone’s on their Hand386 so I dusted off my PocketChip and look at that, I’m running System 7.5.3 thanks to Mini VMac! It’s delightfully quick!

@dmoren @Moltz Is it "distributable"?
