Will Chihiro ever be emulated?

Emulation is possible for most Sega arcade systems these days, but only a few Chihiro games can partly run in emulation at the moment.
Would it ever be likely to be emulated fully?
Just wondering, before I launch into a series of videos on Sega arcade-vs-PC ports.

Asking the mamedevs questions like that usually guarantees they won't work on the system in question again for a long, long time.

We're lucky all these people work on MAME so do loads of research on the system, get schematics on the system, buy a system & donate it to the MAME devs. You might just get some devs interested in seeing how the system works so they can try to write code for it & then & only then you'll get the answer to your question.
For now you'll have to wait patiently like the rest of us are doing & enjoy the long list of working games to choose from.

It's pretty much a X-Box with more ram, correct? I assume once X-Box emulation is playable, we would see Chihiro shortly after.

The main dev of CXBX Reloaded (a xbox and chihiro emulator) is having some difficulties in emulating the controls in chihiro games.
Bye now, only Virtua Cop 3 and a Beta version of Outrun 2 are playable.

Yes, but also uses GDROMS

Looks like we've missed some kind of "silent revolution" in the Chihiro emulation.

Althought this video was captired just at 1 FPS, there's still a some eye-cutting artifacts during FMV playback, a lot of serious lighting problems, no sound, and zombies are invisible, it's already a big step in the right direction. The main problem is that not so many people has a PCs powerful enough to see it.
