Could you build this?

No Static recompilation of a Nintendo Switch game requires specialized reverse engineering of a proprietary binary, CPU and GPU emulation expertise, and legal and technical knowledge that vibe coding can't provide.

What it would actually take: A real version needs disassembly and lifting of the ARM64 game code into C or C++, plus reimplementing the Switch OS services and GPU (Maxwell/NVN) graphics pipeline. The hard parts are the lifting accuracy, the console API reimplementation, and graphics translation to Vulkan or D3D12. This requires experienced reverse engineers and emulator developers.
