Bochs is an open-source 386, 486 and Pentium emulator written in C++ geared around emulating the full x86 architecture. It does not have high emulation speeds because it emulates every x86 instruction and devices.

Bochs has very rudimentary support for emulation of FM Towns, which development was abandoned long time ago, so this can be used as an "FM Towns emulator" purely only for curiosity sake. UNZ/MAME/Tsugaru are much better for FM Towns emulation nowadays.
