The reason is that on Zalaga, Orlando (the programmer) decided to trap the
unknown instruction (? - I've been programming ARM for too long :) vector and
use it to redefine some opcodes which I believe are on the 65c02 - if the
emulator can't emulate this vector trapping then Zalaga won't run...
Note: Zalaga runs on my Arc Beeb Emulator
