Just to set things straight:

RPM Fusion's free repository is only used for packages that are "free" 
according to the Fedora licensing guidelines

Or, IOW, RPM Fusion free only contains software that normally would be 
acceptable for Fedora, but are not due to patent concerns.

Hence emulators with non free RPMs are in RPM Fusion nonfree.
