So is my interpretation of what Otaku's emu does off base? That is, is
it an emulator that tries to "interpret" the code and do the right thing
instead of actually emulating each chip of the original hardware? (As in
the N64 emu example.) Or does it do something else?
How does the emu you're helping with deal with the 2600? Does it try to
emulate each chip?

Ok, fair enough. Are any of these efforts (as far as you know) headed
for commercial products?
