Is there a PC port of

Yes. Sonic R (1998 PC) ported to the PSP at 60 fps, built on the Sonic R decompilation by ghurone. It's playable now, and it runs natively on PC rather than through an emulator.

Is the Sonic R PC port an emulator?

No. It's a native build of the game's code for PC (a decompilation, static recompilation or native port), so it runs like a PC game.

Sonic R (1998 PC) ported to the PSP at 60 fps, built on the Sonic R decompilation

ghurone's Sonic R PSP is a homebrew port of the 1998 PC version of Sonic R to the PlayStation Portable, built on jnmartin84's Sonic R decompilation. It runs the game's 30 Hz logic with an interpolated extra frame for 60 fps (30 is still an option), draws the track, characters and fog on the PSP's GE chip, adds 16:9 widescreen in one-player races and up to double the PC's Very Far draw distance, streams music as ATRAC3 from the Memory Stick and fixes several decompilation bugs checked against the original SONICR.EXE. The release ships only a ready-made EBOOT.PBP; a Python tool converts the files and music from your own Sonic R PC CD into the Memory Stick folder.
