Could you build this?

No Porting GTA IV to the Nintendo Switch requires reverse-engineering a large proprietary engine, rewriting graphics, audio and platform layers for ARM and Switch hardware, and handling licensing, which far exceeds vibe-coding capability.

What it would actually take: The work involves decompiling or reimplementing the original RAGE engine's rendering, physics, and streaming systems, then optimizing them for the Switch's Tegra GPU and memory limits. It requires experienced game engine and console platform developers, Nintendo SDK access or equivalent low-level tooling, and extensive hardware testing.
