Could you build this?
Partial The file management UI and audio conversion wrapper are easily vibe-coded, but reverse-engineering the game's proprietary audio containers and metadata indexes requires specialized reverse engineering.
What it would actually take: Architecture: Desktop GUI utility (such as C#/.NET or Python/Qt) driving custom binary parsers and audio transcoding pipelines. Hard parts: Reverse-engineering Konami's proprietary container formats, audio codecs, and in-game database files to insert custom tracks without triggering file-integrity crashes. Required expertise: Binary reverse engineering, hex analysis, and game file structure reconstruction using tools like Ghidra.
