Games like The King of Fighters '98 on Mac
3 of the 5 modern alternatives to The King of Fighters '98 (1998) run on Mac. The cheapest is THE KING OF FIGHTERS '98 ULTIMATE MATCH at € 19,99. One is made by independent developers.
Mac support for classics is patchier than PC, and Apple's move away from 32-bit software broke a lot of older re-releases. What works well: games sold through Steam or GOG with native Apple Silicon builds, cross-platform open-source engine ports, and browser-based versions. Many remaining gaps can be closed with an emulator or a compatibility layer.
