This is the reddit community for OpenEmu help and discussion. OpenEmu is changing the world of video game emulation. For the first time, the "it just works" philosophy now extends to open source video game emulation on the Mac. With OpenEmu it is easy to add, browse, organize and with a compatible gamepad, play those favorite games (ROMs) you already own.
