No: -D just sets the USE_PPC_ASM macro. ZSNES does not include any powerpc ASM and has no 'C' fallback code for non-x86 hardware. But snes9x works just fine because it is portable and runs on almost any CPU (x86, ppc, mips, sparc, ....) -- RFC 1925: (11) Every old idea will be proposed again with a different name and a different presentation, regardless of whether it works.
