  • I bet you're only reading this to see what Reader Rabbit 1-liner I came up with.
    A remake of the very first Reader Rabbit game ever released, this is a game that's already been recorded on multiple occasions but I thought I'd go ahead and do a video on it myself just for fun. This is also of the lesser-seen Macintosh version, though it's mostly identical to the Windows one.
    This is a pretty basic edutainment game, there's really not a whole lot to talk about honestly. This includes four activities all based on three-letter-word spelling and phonics. I did each of them several times, trying to show different animations and what happens when you get things wrong, but yeah, it's a pretty straightforward video all things considered. Little fun fact, I actually remember playing this game when I was in kindergarten at my elementary school, though the only thing I could recall from it prior to playing it again was the theme song.
    Oh yeah, I should also mention that I zoomed in on the game for most of the video; it runs at 512x384 resolution but most monitors don't support that and I think my capture card doesn't handle it particularly well either so I just ran the game in 640x480 and cropped out the border. So no, the zooming in/out at the beginning and end is not part of the game, before anyone asks.
    Hope you enjoy!

    Excellent! I received the 1996 Windows version of this game back in 2000, and I remember playing it on Windows 95 and Windows XP Home Edition PCs back in the early 2000s. It was one of my favorite Reader Rabbit games. This video of this Macintosh version brings back memories, so thanks for working on it!

    I don't know if you ever knew this about Reader Rabbit, but long ago, there was a cassette tape released that I happen to own.

    You have a classic Mac OS virtual machine program? If so, what’s it called?

      Nope! This is the real deal! You're looking at footage recorded off an authentic Power Macintosh 7600!
      That said, there are two well-known classic Macintosh emulators -- Basilisk II and Sheepshaver. The former emulates Motorola 68k based Macs and the latter emulates PowerPC based ones.

      @@ragread Thank you!
      I have a sizable retro computer collection. The Macintosh computers from the time use a proprietary video port but it's compatible with VGA so a passive adapter can be used, which is what I do. That output then goes into a splitter, one end goes to a CRT monitor while the other goes to a VGA-to-HDMI converter box, with the audio being split a similar way and also going into that. The HDMI output then goes into my Elgato 4K 60 capture card (it's internal) and I use the included software for recording. Yes, it's a lot, but after 12 years of doing this it's gotten really important to me to get the best possible quality I can off authentic hardware.

      @@ragread Yep, the converter has an audio jack on it. Quite convenient since I don't have to worry about audio syncing.
