Could you build this?

No Porting an N64 game to PC via static recompilation requires deep reverse engineering of MIPS assembly, microcode handling, and intricate C/C++ game engine reconstruction.

What it would actually take: Built using C/C++, RT64/OpenGL/DirectX backends, and N64Recomp tools. The hard part is manually symbol-mapping undocumented assembly routines, rewriting audio and graphics microcode (fast3d/F3DEX), and fixing timing/physics bugs caused by variable frame rates.
