When I consider the utility of a hammer, my first priority is to ask what the hammer can teach me.
There are NES emulators aplenty, the only value in writing a new one is pedagogic, for the writer.
This endeavor had negative net value.
It demonstrated the capabilities of an AI to a potentially on-the-fence audience while giving the author experience using the new tools/environment. That's solid value. I also just find it really cool to see that an AI did this.

You ask what you learned building the house. The hammer hits the nails.
