Could you build this?
No Porting Dolphin to jailbroken PS5 hardware involves console-specific kernel exploits, custom FreeBSD/Orbis OS syscall abstractions, and porting Dolphin's JIT and graphics backends to PS5's proprietary GPU/shader APIs (GNM/GNMX or Vulkan translation layers).
What it would actually take: Requires C++ emulation engineering, deep knowledge of GameCube/Wii hardware (Broadway CPU, Flipper/Hollywood GPU), and PS5 homebrew SDKs. The core bottleneck is writing or adapting Dolphin's JIT compiler to work under PS5's memory protection and porting graphical shaders to the console's native graphics stack.
