I can't comment on the difficulty of emulation, but it's probably 'annoying' because it isn't von Neumann, which makes it a tad bit strange.

- gugagore 10y agoI thought the Harvard architecture was pretty common for microcontrollers, where firmware lives permanently in Flash memory. PIC microcontrollers have opcodes that are 12 and 14 bits, for example.
- andars 10y agoIt certainly isn't uncommon. I didn't mean that it is strange in comparison to other microcontrollers, just that Harvard can be strange for the author of an emulator, depending on their background.
