Since no one has tackled this I decided to wade in.
Simply, it can't be done.
Emulation software requires an OS to run under.
You can slim down an OS and have it run emulation on booting.
This will make it seem like the emulation is native.

As funny as it sounds, Linux might be the best OS for this task.
You can jetison a lot of the OS outside the kernel to slim it down.
I'd like to see the LiveCD version.
