It would take an extremely dedicated group of coders to make an efficient emulator and it would take a lot of effort to figure out all the CPUs through decaping and whatnot.

Saturn emulators on PC are still rather poor and you can be a lot sloppier with PC emulators. In short, technically it COULD happen but there is no way in hell it will. As it stands, it's also why the PS1 port has a 2D battlefield and runs rather poorly throughout the entire game with slow-down rampant on just about every map. That's why for the longest time Grandia stayed on the Saturn because an easy port to PS1 would not happen. Couple that with the fact that the Saturn was intended more as a 2D machine, in Sega's infinite wisdom, with 3D reluctantly being added and poorly implemented, devs again had to do weird things to make it work. Therefore, devs had to get rather creative to make games work with the limited and weirdly placed resources. The Saturn has a lot of poorly documented custom chips that weren't designed very well in a practical sense. OK off to shoot myself now! Bye everyone! lol I have spent hours playing CD-i games and only minutes playing a single Saturn game.

(I have played one for about 5 minutes at a friends house.) So if they could perfect it, I would probably be pretty stoked.Д®dit: Just realized a depressing fact. I wish Saturn emulation was more mature though, it's one of the few consoles I don't own or have never had any play time with. (My guess is that the GPU is super custom and harder to emulate.) Then there is the fact that the Saturn was the only console I know of that used square polygons, so that has to add a little bit of a challenge.

The problem is not all instructions take the same amount of cycles. If they just task the emulator to do every other instruction like CPU1 then CPU2 that could make it a bit easier. (Although I have an idea on how they do emulate it. Just off the top of my head the dual SH-1 CPU's in the Saturn makes that a little harder than to emulate one single CPU.
