The only experience that I have had with emulators is Sailor Moon Another Story, a Japanese game that was fan translated and I also downloaded. And if I can do this, how will this work with an emulator and a CD-ROM? Can I run a very old game like King's Quest VII on a newer version of a Mac by downloading a Mac OS X emulator? This worked with an old copy of Myst that I bought for $3 at Half-Price Books on my current computer which is running Windows XP with a Pentium 4 processor.
My big question is, how can I play this game without having to buy a new copy of the game that could potentially be very buggy?Īs of now I've been looking into emulators for Macs on PCs, but the only ones I can seem to find are either too old (The MiniVMac emulator) and the Mac OS X emulator, which is much, MUCH newer.
I have all of the original pieces of the game, including the CD-ROM. The good news is, that way back when our family had a Macintosh LC III, and I was running the Mac version of the game. I have become more and more aware that the Windows 95 version of this game was plagued with bugs and needed a number of patches. I've been wishing to re-live a bit of my early 90s gaming experiences and one of the games I have been striving to recreate for myself in 2007 is King's Quest VII: The Princeless Bride.
