> How does a Linux port make it easier to port emulators or console games?

It helps emulator development by giving you something to work with inside of your emulator that actually has some tooling to let you look around and test out the system from the inside, unlike trying to get a game working. If Linux-N64 can boot, you can expect that a lot of your code is working properly.

Ah, that makes sense. I can see why that would be useful.
