Not having the source code sucks, but it's not a showstopper ; some videogame preservation websites have managed to workaround this issue.
It's possible to play "Prince of Persia" in the browser (through DOSBOX recompiled to Javascript).
It's even possible to play the original Windows 95 (!) Pinball in the browser. Seeing the Windows 95 cloudy boot sequence in a Javascript canvas is disturbing. The game isn't as smooth as native, but it's definitely playable.
