For sure, but those are all individually rebuilt from the ground up for that purpose of running on an arm chip. I can't run my favourite games from 2008 on my phone, or a weird indie niche title. With technology like this, you probably could, and quite easily if done right.

It's not just about the games either, it's a good step towards making all programs somewhat hardware agnostic. The ARM x86 septation was pretty much set in concrete up until now, it's a crazy advancement.
