And other Xbox emulators don't emulate the Pentium 3/Celeron Hybrid processor at all.

There is enough information about the high level API's that you don't need to emulate the metal which is what they do when emulating other platforms, of course you loose accuracy, however that comes with it's own caviets like timing issues and texture corruption, but people have gotten around it.

I think you are getting yourself confused on the different methods you can go about to emulate a platform.


 

I don't know about that statement but why does blueshogun96's post imply that you need to emulate the xbox's cpu such as "In short, the Xbox's CPU can be emulated, but not accurately."thttp://www.ngemu.com/forums/showthread.php?t=132032

Edit: He pretty much told us to get that xbox is a dressed up PC so it is easy to emulate crap out of our heads. I'm not saying that PS4 and xbone is harder to emulate but rather I'm trying to illustrate the fact that your pretty naive about xbox or x86 emulation. 

The reasons why I said the WII U would be easier to emulate has to do with the fact that the dolphin team pretty much figured out the wii's cpu and I'm pretty sure that the wii u's cpu architecure has to be similar to the wii in order to play wii games. 

Edit: I was pretty much in the same stance as you when I thought why the xbox could be emulated easily. I'm pretty sure "there is no demand for xbox emulation" sounds like an excuse rather than an actual reason and a small team like cxbx can manage it and even then they had 5 or more years and they have yet to still make tenfold of a progress.
