# When I got my (now ancient) laptop I went to MacExpo a few months later and picked up Giants: Citizen Kabuto and No One Lives Forever for about a fiver each ... still quality games :)
More enjoyment for Mac ...

# The game library, unfortunately, isn't as big for the Mac.
But the games they have aren't bad at all; I saw CoD4 in the Apple shop once.

I tend to stick to emulators, for the Mega Drive etc. They work really well on Macs :D

# This is very true
I have an array of Sonic titles that I pop into Genesis Plus on a weekly basis :D
Also SMS Plus gets a regular airing ... I'm intending to buy a new turbo computer at some stage soon, hopefully it'll then be up to running Kega Fusion and I can play Knuckles Chaotix and Sonic CD too, fingers crossed

# I've had Sonic CD on here for a while now.
It works pretty well indeed. I'd get more SNES ROMs if I had a decent controller. It's fiddly as hell with a keyboard.

# It was ages ago that I set them up
but Emulator Enhancer and Gamepad Companion both (either, or working together, can't remember it was so many years ago I set them up) allow you to use a USB joypad - I use my 360 controller for games that need it - although strangely enough I prefer the keyboard for a lot of them!
Anything you'd recommend on the SNES front? I've only tried the Marios and Starfox so far ... well, and Putty Squad, but I loved the original of that title back on the Amiga anyway.

# 360 controllers work on Macs? o.o
This is news to me. I shall have to look into that. As for the SNES, I would recommend games like Super Metroid without a shadow of a doubt. Also, the Donkey Kong Country games are worth a go too, with the 2nd being my favourite.

# The USB ones do anyway, probably not the wireless.
Cheers for that, I shall do some investigating :)

# Just found a driver for the USB 360 controller (which I have)
I'll give it a quick go now ^^ cheers for that. And no problem!

EDIT: Works perfectly on Kega Fusion :D
