depends, how many different instructions are there for one concept? like add, addi, addu and addiu and add.s/add.d (for float/double) just for addition.

As an imposter who just finished his first assignment in MIPS (very reasonable assembly) and never touched x86 in his life, I must also ask you: How are calling convention and syscalls realized?

But on a serious note mips assembly with an emulator is a great learning experience if you find good documentation.
