I wouldn't call x86-64 all that legacy (it's like, recently legacy) and that's all Rosetta supports. But performance is not that bad even if you stack something like WINE on top to handle i386 programs.

There’s videos on YouTube of people playing Windows games (like GTAV) through parallels via Rosetta 2.

Performance isn’t amazing, but it blows my mind that it works at all!

Is that really Rosetta and not qemu? I didn’t think it supported VMs.
