The N64 was released in mid-1996 as Nintendos front-runner in the original next-gen console wars.

Although it was a much higher powered machine than Sonys Playstation or Segas Saturn, the N64 always lagged behind in sales.

Nintendo chose to sell the machine on the merits of its fast-loading cartridge system and the insignificant fact that it featured a 64-bit architecture - unfortunately for Nintendo, people were more impressed by high-capacity CD media, in-game movie sequences and pre-recorded soundtracks than fast loading and the size of the machines pipeline.

Developers often preferred the Playstation for their titles due to the N64s inability to provide media rich content which games such as the Final Fantasy series demanded.

Although the hardware facilitated classics such as Goldeneye and the late Perfect Dark, it wasnt enough to win over the masses.

A fairly modern system is needed to play emulate the machine, and a 3D accelerated graphics card is an absolute must (onboard graphics wont cut the mustard here).

Game ROMs are available from ripped cartridges, ranging in size (5MB-70MB).

Aside from that, youll need to use your own ROMs or get them yourself from elsewhere, which is pretty typical with emulators.

Fortunately for those with a bunch of game discs laying around, Playstation 1 games on CD are fairly easy to play or to convert to ROMs, while Nintendo 64 is a bit more complex because the cartridges cant be ripped by a standard CDDVD player, but its still possible.

You can even use existing gamepads with the Mac and OpenEmu if you happen to have a Playstation 4 controller or PS3 controller, and setup for either is easy in OS X.

You can also use an Xbox One controller with the Mac, but the setup requires additional hardware, and given that there are many affordable USB options out there like this Logitech USB gamepad controller you may just want to spring for a dedicated controller.

Once you have your controller connected to the Mac, you can customize each emulator console to the controller, heres the Nintendo 64 controller setup.

But for those with PS1 games not loading, that can be why, sometimes the Playstation doesnt download or have the BIOS and OpenEmu requires those.

Versions for older releases are at their GitHub but without N64 or PSX support.
