Support for older operating systems and processors will not be added unless a
contributor steps up to build and maintain them. All active contributors are on
modern systems and busy with higher priority tasks. Whether the emulator runs on
Windows Vista or not doesn't matter if it can't run games.

Not natively, but Xenia runs with Wine on Linux.*
* [https://github.com/xenia-project/xenia/wiki/Quickstart#minimum D3D12 will only work on Windows 10+ due to vkd3d not being supported.]
macOS is not compatible due to requiring MoltenVK/Metal support which isn't implemented in Xenia.
