Running games via emulation on my iMac

So I have an iMac G5 and would love to run some of these great older games I came across via Digg.

I don't have an emulator. And am not sure which one is recommended.

Any recommendations from fellow Mac owners would be great.

Thanks

I'm really psyched to play Lemmings and re-live my youth!

What platform are the games? Nintendo, SNES, Sega Genesis?

System Preferences > Classic > Enable.

Or if you have an OS9 installation disk, install system 9 in its own partition.
