Could you build this?

No Porting a PS2 game to PS Vita means reverse engineering the PS2 binaries and recompiling or emulating them for a different architecture and console. That requires low-level systems and console-homebrew expertise that vibe coding does not supply.

What it would actually take: A real port needs deep reverse engineering of the MIPS-based PS2 executable and its assets, then a recompiler or emulator targeting the Vita's ARM hardware and its homebrew SDK. Performance tuning, memory constraints, and graphics API translation (GS to Vita GPU) are the hard parts. This takes experienced emulation or reverse-engineering engineers working for months or longer.
