Could you build this?

No Porting Mario Kart 8 Deluxe to iOS and macOS requires reverse engineering the Switch binary, its GPU shaders, and Nintendo's online networking, which is research-level work far beyond vibe coding.

What it would actually take: A real version needs a Switch emulator-level core: CPU and GPU emulation (translating Maxwell-era shaders to Metal), a file-format and asset loader, and reimplementation of the online services or a custom netcode. This requires deep expertise in emulation, reverse engineering, and graphics, plus significant time and legal risk.
