The user must give the 'execuable' permission to the AppImage package (chmod +x ./appname.AppImage) but this is the only requirement.
Unfortunately, emulator adaption is very poor compared to other two systems. [[RPCS3]] is the most notable emulator to officially adapt this format, but aside of [https://forums.libretro.com/t/linux-retroarch-runtime-for-every-modern-distro-with-appimage/4965 unofficial build of RetroArch] and [https://forums.dolphin-emu.org/Thread-dolphin-as-appimage-on-linux Dolphin] (both are outdated compared to upstream releases) no other emulators are known to available in this format.
List of AppImage packages can be found in [https://appimage.github.io/apps/ AppImageHub], but as of November 20December 11, 2017, this site does not list RPCS3 or any other emulators in it.
