Could you build this?

No Static recompilation of a Dreamcast game plus rollback netcode is a specialized compiler and systems project that needs deep low-level expertise.

What it would actually take: The core is a static recompiler that lifts SH-4 machine code and the Dreamcast's PowerVR and audio hardware behavior into native C/C++, which means decompilation, hardware-accuracy work, and manual fixes for the game's code. Rollback netcode also needs deterministic simulation and a custom networking layer. Building it requires experts in compilers, console hardware, and netcode, along with a legally dumped disc.
