Could you build this?

No A static recompilation of an N64 game requires reverse engineering the original MIPS binary, the RSP microcode, and the graphics pipeline, then writing a recompiler and runtime. This is specialized research-level emulation work.

What it would actually take: The pipeline disassembles the N64 ROM into MIPS code, lifts it to C or another target, and reimplements RSP/RDP graphics and audio with a runtime that handles timing and memory-mapping quirks. It needs prior experience with N64 hardware, MIPS, and graphics APIs, plus a lot of per-game debugging. Only a small expert community can do this reliably.
