hi everyone, i'd really like to have the opportunity to view games before they are published, or to view games that wont ever be published (rejected movies Id still like to see). Anyways, i can't for the life of me find something to play these files. Are they for a specific emulator perhaps? I did a search but given the keywords I had to look for I wasn't surprised to have no luck finding anything. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, JON G

You have to get the TAS-enabled versions of SNES9x. Unfortunately they aren't available compiled for OSX. If you know how to program, you could try compiling them yourself; alternatively they probably work pretty well under virtualization -- but that's basically equivalent to running Windows.

For OS X you are out of luck. I have previously found a version of SNESX that plays on Mac, but the version is seriously outdated. All movies I attempted to play would desynch. This includes ones that were made when the emulator was "new." Your best bet is running boot camp.
