Scroll-Reverser VS OpenEmu

Normal mice support is deliberately broken in macOS (so that you consider buying their Magic Mouse), but can be easily fixed with a 3rd party app like Scroll Reverser.

Same for me, long time user of https://github.com/pilotmoon/Scroll-Reverser

The Scroll Reverser app lets you reverse scrolling for mice while keeping natural scrolling for touchpads.

Mouse: I believe this requires 3rd party app, if there is MacOS option for that please enlighten me, I have a Logitech mouse and Logitech software has settings for that but there are other, non-brand specific tools e.g. scroll-reverser (available in brew or here), which BTW can also change behavior of the trackpad if you want those options modified in one place.

Agree on the scroll direction thing (though scroll reverser exists)

The sheer fucking arrogance of them telling the consumer which direction they're allowed to scroll their device is why the only Apple product I own is the company-provided Mac which I installed https://github.com/pilotmoon/Scroll-Reverser on to let me use the way I want to use it.

Make sure to download only the official build from https://pilotmoon.com/scrollreverser/

Tangentially related: if anybody is looking for a good way to organize a library of retro emulators and games on their MacOS laptops/desktop computers then I recommend OpenEmu. It is designed from the ground up to look and feel like a Mac app.

Just follow the link i posted. Btw you can build OpenEmu in a couple of minutes yourself. Some controllers (PS5 for example) are natively supported, more shader options, and other small stuff..

Download Openemu 2.0.9.1 https://github.com/OpenEmu/OpenEmu/releases/tag/v2.0.9.1

As far as I know, devs have no plans to allow multiple bindings to the same inputs. It is apparently too complicated for them to implement. See: https://github.com/OpenEmu/OpenEmu/issues/4600

The Pocket is a great device, highly recommended, get the Dock if you want to buy one. While waiting, I recommend using https://openemu.org/ on your Mac to run "roms", which are files that represent old games. To get the ROMs, google for "tubrografx roms archive.org". Then for a controller on a Mac, you can use a PS4/PS5 or Xbox (One/Series), if you have one lying around. That said, I recommend buying an SN30 Pro.

Download and Install OpenEmu

Huh? Try http://openemu.org/ and download the experimental version (with arcade support)

Yeah should be pretty easy if you have the ISO or a disc copy, OpenEmu should do it without issue - https://openemu.org

Otherwise you can try OpenEmu: it's a very Mac friendly emulator of a lot of old systems that works by dragging/dropping the roms in it. The "Experimental" (direct link) build includes support of Mame, which means support of Neo Geo roms.
