Could you build this?

No Recompiling a console game into a PC build requires reverse engineering proprietary binaries, which needs deep low-level expertise and raises legal issues that vibe coding can't address.

What it would actually take: A real version requires a decompilation and static-recompilation toolchain (for example, lifting PowerPC or Xbox 360 code to x86/x64), plus a runtime that emulates the console's OS, GPU, and audio APIs. It takes years of specialist work in compilers, graphics, and binary analysis, and it depends on proprietary game assets and copyright constraints.
