Could you build this?

No This is a PS5 emulator, which requires reverse engineering of the PS5 system, custom CPU and GPU emulation, and a large body of compatibility work. Vibe coding cannot produce that.

What it would actually take: A real emulator needs low-level systems engineers with reverse-engineering skills for the PS5 OS and hardware, plus Vulkan-based GPU emulation and JIT or recompilation for the CPU. Compatibility work is done per game through extensive debugging and community testing, so the project relies on a specialized, long-running team.
