Sims 2: I own all of them on orig. PC CD's; possible for Mac compatibility?

I own a 2016 MacBook Air, latest OS, etc. I was wondering, since Origin doesn't seem to support the older Sims generations, is there another way to download and install them? Hopefully avoiding the Boot Camp suggestions, I would like to know if there's another compatibility format or possible alternative to Origin? Thank you!

    @RebeccaPunches As far as I know there is no other way to download Sims 2. If you have the game on disc, I would recommend that you reach out to our Advisors and they can check if it can be added to your Origin account:  

    1. Click on the following link: http://help.ea.com/ (once there make sure that your country is correctly select in top left hand corner of Help.EA.com)
    2. Make sure you are logged in (top right corner) and select 'Help with Game'
    3. Find the affected game (if it's an account issue select Origin)
    4. Select 'Contact Us' at the bottom right on the new page
    5. Select your platform and then 'Next'
    6. Select topic from the drop down menus, type in a short description of your issue and select 'Next'.
    7. Select a contact option. Please note that available contact options do depend on your country settings and time of day.

    Let us know if you have any other questions!
