Could you build this?

Partial The frontend and emulator launching are vibe-codeable using existing libretro cores, but building for the handheld's embedded Linux and running on stock firmware requires device-specific knowledge.

What it would actually take: A real version would wrap existing libretro emulator cores in a launcher UI and cross-compile for the device's ARM Linux environment. The hard parts are device-specific input, display, and save-file integration on stock firmware, which need hands-on hardware debugging and embedded expertise.
