Well, you notice how they all run on PowerPC? that means they're ported.
Aside from the few Cider games (released in the last month), every game is either a port, a game developed simultaneously on multiple platforms (Blizzard and several smaller developers do this), or Mac-only game (no really).
Whether a game is a port or emulation, what does it matter? if it says it works on your Mac then you have a reasonable expectation that it works properly and with reasonable performance.
My biggest complaint with gaming on the Mac is that there is no Steam client for OS X, as there are several Steam games that run on the Unreal engine (such as Red Orchestra) that would work just fine on the Mac.
