Could you build this?

No Mapping other controllers on a jailbroken PS4 requires kernel-level exploitation, USB and HID driver work, and console-specific knowledge that vibe coding cannot supply.

What it would actually take: The stack is low-level C or C++ running on a jailbroken console, with a USB host or network bridge and an input-injection layer. The hard parts are console exploit chains, reverse engineering the PS4 system software, and HID descriptor emulation, which need experienced embedded and security reverse-engineering expertise.
