These last few days I've been spending way too much time cramming a shit-ton of games onto my Mac mini. Why? Because I'm crazy or something. So, now I have 313 GOG games installed there, 77 of which are only provided as Windows-only per GOG. When am I ever going to play them all? Beats me. That's also only roughly a third of my GOG shelf, leaving out those my Mac mini can't run due to missing dedicated GPU, incompatibility, or the plentiful of games I've already beaten on either Mac or Windows side (exaggerated). I'm also not done yet. There's at least a few good dozen I can think of that I haven't had the time to add to the pile yet.

Holy backlog, Batman! ;)

EDIT(ed addendum): Out of curiosity, I just went through my library and also counted how many games I've completed thus far from my giant pile. Roughly 208 by my count. That ain't too shabby, considering there are also quite a few games I own and still enjoy here that in all intents and purposes are endless.

Well, since my last post I added another 85 games (including 63 "Windows-only" titles), bringing me to a grand total of 398 functioning GOG games on my Mac mini. This fool be crazy. Yarp!

Testing game compatibility takes about as much time as it does to download and install them. Thanks to paulthetall.com and his Porting Kit a lot of that painstaking work has been done for the most part besides some tweaks needed in places.

I'm actually surprised by how well some of these games run in Wine; it sure has come a long way. For example, games such as Stranger's Wrath HD, Death to Spies, Impossible Creatures, Sword of the Stars, Nexus, and Star Wars Empire at War run perfectly at their highest settings in native 1080P. :)

Who says (underpowered) Mac don't have game? ;)

Wow, nice feat! I can only imagine a windows desktop entirely filled with shortcuts to games, I don't know how that looks like on MacOS.

How much disk space does that accomplishment eats?

Well, I only keep those games I may be currently interested in playing on my desktop. Everything else goes in my GOGames folder with appropriate genre subfolders. ;)

Overall, the whole shebang takes up between 350 and 400 GB. Considering that for a number of years the space I used on my TB drive was typically less than 150 GB before this latest venture of mine, it's a not a bad use of all that free space. I still have 530GB to do with as I please.
