Could you build this?

No Building a native runnable version of a console game requires reverse engineering and recompiling the original binary, which needs deep systems and emulation expertise.

What it would actually take: The project has to decompile or statically recompile the game's original console code into a native Windows and Linux executable, replacing hardware-specific calls with platform equivalents for graphics, audio, and input. This takes low-level expertise in CPU architectures, binary analysis, and graphics APIs, along with a large amount of debugging. It also has legal exposure that vibe coding does not address.
