Your are talking to the author of that emulator :)
It would be much easier for an x86 emulator. I tried only the Javascript engines from Google and Chrome so far. Of course they all fail to compile with an unsupported platform error using the OpenRISC toolchain. I am wondering which one is more compatible for cross-compiling.
I wonder if a standard webkit-gtk might be doable just because it does support running without a JIT from some googling. I imagine it'll be slow as anything could be, but it might work.
I can understand the developer why they cancelled the project. This is a game only hackers would like. The big question is still, how to learn programming like it would be a game. The best example in my opinion is the game spacechem in my opinion. http://www.spacechemthegame.com/
I did a very minimal one for MIPS, based on SPIM and written in Haskell. It was a fun project in learning and abstracting patterns. Highly recommended, IMO.

[ 3.4 ms ] story [ 29.7 ms ] threadI am also wondering when we will see the first emulator which is trying a dynamic translation with the eval function :)
Looks not so bad. This not an absolute no ;)
It's a shame 0x10c isn't a thing anymore.
I'm writing a z80 assembler for nodejs.
