Now I understand, PCSX2 is like Dosbox/WinUAE (their dynarec also produces x86_32 code only).
From what I recall they didn't want to maintain multiple branches of the source which might have some bugs fixed in one but not the other and be a lot more work to maintain. So basically 64-bit wasn't gaining them enough to be worth the hassle and since everyone can run 32 bit code but not everyone can run 64-bit code. They killed the 64-bit branch and went with the 32-bit one.
