Note
The best emulators for MacOS can be most easily downloaded, installed and played via the OpenEmu project (https://openemu.org). The program's currently-emulated systems and the emulators used by OpenEmu are listed at https://github.com/OpenEmu/OpenEmu/wiki#supported-systems.

- ↑ Due to using a non-commercial license. Source code is still publicly available.
- ↑ SameBoy's libretro core supports Link Cable, standalone does not.
- ↑ Pretty buggy but sometimes works.
- ↑ Full GBC, GBA and GB support since version 2.1.3.
- ↑ Some games may work with an Intel Mac, but performance will be sub-par.
- ↑ Based on PCSX2, so it is partially FLOSS. The ARM parts are currently closed source.
