does anyone know a game engine the emulates the power and limitations of the snes?
I know that there are a bunch of "fantasy consoles" that provide constrained programming environments more or less similar to developing on older consoles. Pico-8 and TIC-80 are two well-known ones. Quadplay looks interesting to me, probably a bit more powerful than the SNES, but in the ballpark, in terms of resolution and color capabilities.

The Future of Games Is Instant
I think virtual consoles are the answer here like pico8. But i am not a fan of pico8 limitations and also the design tools don't work on browser. I am keeping an eye on quadplay(https://github.com/morgan3d/quadplay) which seems interesting but also lacking design tools.

Pico 8 in other software
Picolove, written in lua for love2d: a very good starting point, especially if the engine you're using has support for lua. Has been used for "expanded" versions of games, because it's very easy to modify the resolution of the display and things like that. Works for simpler carts like Celeste, but is not memory accurate!

Simple Engine ontop of löve framework?
You should check out picolove (https://github.com/picolove/picolove). It’s the PICO-8 API implemented in Löve. It can run PICO-8 games, but it doesn’t have support for the PICO-8 dev tools (code editor, sprite editor, etc…)

What are some free alternatives to P8?
I've never used it, but you could try picolove. It's a reimplementation of the PICO-8 API in Love2D. So, only the code part is there and you don't get the music/sprite/map editor, and all the other stuff that makes PICO-8 PICO-8. If you plan on buying PICO-8 later though, this could be a good primer to learn the API for free
