Upon hearing that the Nintendo Wii could now run Mac OS X thanks to a clever new port, I wasn't initially surprised. Believe it or not, enthusiasts have already got operating systems like Windows NT and Linux working on Ninty's best retro console contender, but after diving into modder Bryan Keller's development journey, I now feel compelled to shove the system inside an iMac G3.
In a massively detailed blog outlining the Mac OS X Wii port, Keller shares the extremely complicated process of creating a prototype (via RetroDodo). If you're into coding, you'll likely relate more to the modder's struggle, as it's a problem-solving tale revolving around complex boot loading, kernel shenanigans, and hours of squashing bugs.
