Could you build this?

No Porting GoldenEye 007 into VR involves complex reverse engineering of N64 ROM binaries or decompiled codebases, 6DoF motion control integration, and low-level graphics pipeline modification.

What it would actually take: Built on top of a decompiled C/C++ codebase of the original N64 game or custom emulator fork integrated with OpenXR. Hard engineering includes decoupling weapon aiming and camera view from legacy fixed render loops, converting 2.5D/rigid animations to full 6DoF roomscale VR interactions, and maintaining 90fps stereo rendering.
