Why are we listening to this dinosaur still? The ethical considerations are fairly simple actually when it comes to this:
Is it easy to acquire the original console/hardware and software, at a logical price for the consumer? YES/NO
Are the original developers still around? YES/NO
Does the software in question still get sold, digitally or physically? YES/NO
Are the original developers likely to receive any income from sales of said software in sale? YES/NO
If you answered NO to all (or at the very least, the last) of these, feel free to emulate. The law is often unreasonable, chaotic, or simply lacking merit.
Also, a bonus rule:
Do you own the original software/hardware? YES/NO
If you answered YES in the bonus question, feel free to emulate with no moral concerns.
