I called the simulator Sbox and it was just a simple console app. I didn't implement the GPU, so no graphics just the hypervisor and kernel and some simple non-graphics apps. I made it so that you could build the Xbox 360 kernel on your windows machine, then just run sbox.exe and it would automatically find the just built kernel image targeting the PPC64 and boot it. Then if you typed control-C it would drop into the kernel debugger as a sub process, and you could poke around at the machine state as if it were the real Xbox hardware, showing all the PPC instructions and registers. It was a lot of fun writing it, and quite useful.
