Released in January 5, 1999. I remember owning this software and flawless running PS1 games on my Blueberry iBook with a USB controller. Still wild that a company had the balls to release this thing and actually won the case that Sony brought against them, causing Sony to simply buy the company to discontinue the software.

Bonus: Steve Jobs advertising the software at MacWorld.

Bonus 2: Modern Vintage Gamer breakdown of the software.

Fun fact: Connectix made the first web cam.

Edit: not the first, but “the first widespread commercial” webcam

I learned about the Trojan Room coffee cam where they set up a camera next to the coffee pot so others in the building can see if there was any available.

It seems that was the first webcam, while Connectix’s product was the first widely marketed webcam like device.

I have such fond memories of playing twisted metal III on pc with my father using this emulator. You know, back when two players had to share the same keyboard to play.
