Could you build this?

No Static recompilation of a PlayStation 1 game is a reverse-engineering and emulation project requiring deep console-specific expertise.

What it would actually take: The work involves disassembling and lifting the MIPS R3000 game code to native code, reimplementing the PS1 BIOS and hardware (GPU, SPU, CD-ROM) behavior, and then adding modern rendering and gameplay changes. It requires experienced reverse engineers familiar with PS1 internals and a legally owned copy of the game for testing.
