It is not a matter of software. It is a matter of hardware. Unless
someone can comes up with a trick, the controller won't do it.

You might look at:

It uses a PIC. It only has 256K of RAM right now but he is upgrading it to
1mb.
I'm looking into using an eZ80 and a Flash card. By using track buffering
it is possible to emulate almost anything with very little RAM.
