Pretty sure ZSNES is written in x86 assembly, so it wouldn't run all that well on Raspberry Pi, which is using ARM CPU considering that you would need to emulate an emulator.

That's easy! Just use Bochs. Don't bother with recompilation, just use interpreted x86 :)

ZSNES hasn't been written in full asm since sometime after zsKnight died.

Snes9x is written in C++, IIRC. As is MESS' snes emulator.
