homebrew-wine VS em-dosbox

You will need to install homebrew. ARM users will also need Rosetta (I think), but homebrew should be the native version. Next we need wine that can run 32 bit binaries: brew install --cask --no-quarantine gcenx/wine/wine-crossover.

The standard Wine package also stopped working with the Catalina update. To get around this, we'll use a specific version of Wine, developed by Gcenx, made for MacOS 10.15+. To install it, you first need to install Homebrew. To do this, open the application Terminal (the easiest way to do this is hit Cmd + Space, then type "Terminal", then hit return), type in the following command, and hit return:

Currently using: ==> wine-crossover: 22.0.1 https://github.com/Gcenx/homebrew-wine/

Try `gcenx` distribution of wine with crossover patches (https://github.com/Gcenx/homebrew-wine).

Ah, sorry, I assumed from you mentioning installing Wine that you had Homebrew already. Yeah, you need to install Homebrew, there's a command to copy on its website. Once that's done, you need to run the command on the page I linked above to install the fixed version of Wine. After that completes, you should be able to just run the exe (it may prompt you for permission to access a folder or two first), or if not it'll probably ask you to pick which app to use if you try (in which case you can just select Wine Crossover from the list it presents).

It looks like if you need to run Windows apps on Catalina or above, this version of Wine is necessary. I'm not sure where the data folder for the app is, though.

CrossOver’s Wine builds have wine32on64 to run x86_32 programs using Rosetta 2 on M1 macs.

Available at https://github.com/Gcenx/homebrew-wine if you want to use a free build for example.

Does dosbox [in WASM] support SBEMU?

There's a note about fpemu= and 80 bit precision for dosbox emulation.

Notably, unlike Rolypolys 1, you cannot run it in DOSbox. This is because the game is a 32-bit executable, and 32-bit support was simply not present in Windows 3.1, the latest stable Windows version that can be run in DOSbox.

well, it depends. It was better experience than FreeBSD 7.2 that's for sure. :) It was running Xorg with https://i3wm.org, a web-server, XMPP-server, PostgreSQL, few bots and dovecot / postfix (e-mail server). It was doing fine routing internet for 2PCs and a WiFi router for 10 years until its HDD died. For gaming... erm... I was able to play something like Theme Hospital or Syndicate Wars in dosbox. You have to understand any OS is just software it doesn't make magic. With minimalistic Desktop Environment like Xfce, LXDE or even barebones i3wm you can put your hardware to use with Arch Linux.

My advice is, when you feel you need that challenge, install DOSBox or DOSBox-X and Open Watcom C/C++, DJGPP, or gcc-ia16 and do some retro-programming. You'll also get the fun of being able to do low-level hardware twiddling and rely on DOS being so simple that it's effectively an RTOS.

Are you referring to the "DOSBox" program, or were you referring to the windows command prompt? DOSBox (the software program) is not dependent upon Windows to operate. I use it from Linux, myself.

I've been gaming for something like 30 years now, and I've got a lot of old games I can't play right now. I could probably make them work... Get a USB disk drive and throw DOSbox on my machine... Tinker around a bit... I can probably make them work... If the disks are still readable... But it's not 100% certain.
