Could you build this?

No Static recompilation of a GameCube game requires reverse engineering PowerPC binaries and reimplementing the GX graphics and console runtime, which is specialist low-level work vibe coding can't substitute for.

What it would actually take: A real version needs a PowerPC-to-x86/ARM recompiler (disassembly, control-flow recovery, function-level translation), a reimplementation of the GameCube OS and GX GPU API mapped onto modern graphics backends such as Vulkan or Metal, and audio and input emulation. This takes experienced reverse engineers and compiler engineers working over many months, and the game's assets must be supplied by the user.
