these are very interesting ideas
perhaps if you have the time and funds you can write a program with these
emotions?
if you dont have the time i am sure there are many programers that would be
willing to try with your funds

BTW  there was a dedicated computer that was released in 1982 that did have an
"Emotions" feature
the only computer ever released with this feature..the Novag Robot Adversary
when this feature was engaged the Robot would celebrate victory by raising its
Robotic arm in glorious triumph
defeat would be conceded with a pitiful whining noise and a slow ,deathlike
movement of is arm

while on the move the player would be suddenly distracted from thought by
flashing lights and unexpected and erratic arm movements from the robot

and if a  particularly brilliant move was made by the player causing the robot
to suddenly have an inferior position,the robot has been known to take a violent
stab at the player with open claw:
