I'm not sure about this one... there's Crystal Quest but it's a 2D game.
There's also some kind of tempest-like game where you go around planets (the planet screen is similar to the Starfox map ^^).

I don't know... I tried a couple of mac emus a couple of years ago but they weren't very fast. I would be interested in knowing which emulator is good enough for System 9, if any ^^
