Isn't every processor today outside of niche embedded use cases and the dream that is RISC-V either x86-64 or ARM64? By that logic, everything is fair to emulate, because pretty much everything shares the same processor architecture.
I mean laptops, desktops, non-handleld consoles and servers broadly use x86-64, phones and some specialised low-powered laptops and servers, and handheld consoles use ARM64.
The only special case was pre-ARM MACS this century, they were on PowerPC IIRC.
And the PS3 Cell. Also PowerPC IIRC.
Wasnt' the 360 PPC too?
