TI-99/4A ROMs?

How can I play Munch Man on my Macbook?

So I only just discovered the existence of TI-99/4A emulators, and holy crap is that awesome. That was my first computer ever, and I played Munch Man for hours on end with my brother.

I'd like to continue clinging desperately to my childhood, and playing Munch Man again sounds like a perfect way to do that, but I can't find any ROMs for it. Are there good Home of the Underdogs-ish sites for finding old TI-99/4A ROMs, or failing that, maybe an online port of the game?

What you want is Classic99, which comes with Munch Man built in and ready to play. Oddly, I know this because my brother's girlfriend had the same nostalgia for that game and I tracked it down for her before.

It's Windows-only, so you'd need Parallels or a dual-boot Windows install (or something similar) to run it.

Response by poster: Thanks for that -- I did find Classic99, but yeah, I'd prefer something that I can run in OSX (either natively or in X11).
