Trouble opening .msi files

[mh632mc]

I was trying to play a game, the pokemon uranium game, that was only available as a .msi so I read that you could install wine in order to play it. When I ran

Code: Select all

wine start pokemonuranium.msi

as well as

Code: Select all

wine msiexec /i pokemonuranium.msi

I got some error messages that I couldn't find a fix for after searching google. Anyone have any insight how to fix this? See output and specs below!

OS X El Captain 10.11.6
Macports 2.3.4
Wine 1.8.3

Here's the error messages:

Code: Select all
