Marco1019 Posted April 2 Report Posted April 2 Thank you once again for kind words, @Justin! Also, congratulations to all of the participants! I don't have MAME installed on my MacBook. However, I am proposing an alternative method for playing the arcade version of Pengo via retrogames.cc. (There are several versions, though; I'm sure the bootleg version would be excluded.)
