An emulator tricks your computer into thinking it's a different kind of machine, such as an SNES or various arcade gaming systems. It is also, unfortunately, the only way to get decent fighting games for PC

Richard Bannister has HUGE list of them, many for obscure platforms like the short lived SAM Coupe, which interestingly enough has quite a little following.

You mean something like this?

I think you might be thinking of Rosetta, the emulation code in the new Macintels. Rosetta is essentially a decoding program that allows programs written for the power pc processors to run on the intels. It is slower than 'universal' programs--ones that have been adapted to the new processors, but it enables you to run most if not all of the programs that were out for powerpc macs....
