Could you build this?

No A Switch emulator fork requires deep expertise in CPU emulation, JIT compilation, GPU graphics backends, and console-specific formats. Vibe coding cannot substitute for that, and the work is massive.

What it would actually take: Building a real version means writing or maintaining a cycle-accurate-enough CPU core, a dynamic recompiler, and a graphics backend (Vulkan/OpenGL) plus a file-format and firmware-compatibility layer. That needs years of specialized systems and emulation expertise and a team of contributors.
