How to play Galactic Taz Ball on Mac
Game summary
Galactic Taz Ball is a 2010 videogame made specifically for the Nintendo D.S. by WayForward Technologies. It stars The Tasmanian Devil as the main character and Marvin The Martian as the villain.
Marvin The Martian is stealing Earth's landscape to make Mars more scenic. While doing so, he accidentally kidnaps The Tasmanian Devil. Tasmanian must therefore spin his way through bizarre worlds (see below) to stop Marvin from destroying Earth and make his way back home. At the end of the game, Tasmanian, after defeating Marvin's giant robot cat, finds a giant rocket shaped like a drumstick and spins right into it, mistaking it for a real morsel (two Instant Martians make cameo-appearances as the pilots). Upon making it to Earth, the rocket explodes, sending Tasmanian under the tree where his misadventure first began.

Play Galactic Taz Ball on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)
The easiest way to play Galactic Taz Ball on a Mac is through Parallels, which allows you to virtualize a Windows machine on Macs. The setup is very easy and it works for Apple Silicon Macs as well as for older Intel-based Macs.
Parallels supports the latest version of DirectX and OpenGL, allowing you to play the latest PC games on any Mac. The latest version of DirectX is up to 20% faster.
Our favorite feature of Parallels Desktop is that when you turn off your virtual machine, all the unused disk space gets returned to your main OS, thus minimizing resource waste (which used to be a problem with virtualization).
