How to play The Legend of Zelda: Tetra's Trackers on Mac

Game summary

The Legend of Zelda: Tetra's Trackers was formerly planned as stand alone game, but ended up being released as a minigame on the japanese version of The Legend of Zelda: Four Swords Adventures (Four Swords +), as Navi Trackers. In this game, multiple players, using a combination of the television screen and Game Boy Advances, search for members of Tetra's pirate gang to gain stamps from them, as many as possible within a given time limit. All action takes place on the Game Boy Advance used by each player, with the television screen showing a basic map, and Tetra narrating the action. Before becoming part of the Zelda series, it was first intended to be a remake of BS Marvelous: Time Athletic, as verified by a leftover model left in the final game.

Play The Legend of Zelda: Tetra's Trackers on Mac with Parallels (virtualized)

The easiest way to play The Legend of Zelda: Tetra's Trackers 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).
