Could you build this?

No Porting a decompiled GameCube title to Android demands native C/C++ cross-compilation, custom graphics backend bindings (GLES/Vulkan), memory management, and game decompilation tooling.

What it would actually take: Requires taking the C/C++ codebase from a PC decompilation project and writing an Android NDK compatibility layer, JNI bridge, and touch/gamepad input mapping. The rendering backend must be adapted to OpenGL ES 3.0 / Vulkan with custom shader translation from GameCube TEV stages, plus high-performance texture compression handling. This necessitates seasoned low-level C++ game engine, emulation, and Android NDK performance engineering expertise.
