007: Everything or Nothing

Oh yeah, another new game. I'll spare you the details, but a perfect confluence of various different thoughts, impulses, and things I happened to see inspired me to get ahold of an emulation of this console game for my Mac (I actually own the GameCube version, so I can't say I feel too bad about 'pirating' this; also, it's 20 years old and not available in any form for a current-gen console nor on PC, so...)

Had a quick go at it, but the emulator doesn't seem to support using a mouse (beyond clicking) so it was a pain to control. I have old GameCube / GameCube-for-Wii controllers somewhere, but I'm sure there's no way to connect them up to a Mac (heck, if I was going to dig those out, I could just set up the console; though I think I'd need an adaptor to connect it to my TV nowadays).

I'd love to just dig into the game, but while the intro and tutorial were easy enough that I could take my time finding every single button I needed to press and slowly move my view around with random keys, etc, I doubt that would be sufficient for the game proper. Hopefully if I buy a controller it will be compatible with the emulator...
