It has to be emulation, a lot of state is needed to create the picture
that cannot be seen from anything happening on the pins (like ECM/MCM
modes, sprite X coordinate, sprite/data priority), so all that has to
be emulated, and you are looking at pretty much all of a VIC-II by then.
(Well, you don't need anything for accessing memory of course, all that
is done by the real chip and you can sniff it).
