No Running a Nintendo Switch 2 game natively on Mac and iPhone from a dump means reverse-engineering console firmware, decryption, and the ARM and GPU stack. That is deep, legally fraught systems work beyond vibe coding.
What it would actually take: This would require an emulator-grade system implementation: decrypting and loading proprietary executables, emulating Nintendo's custom hardware and GPU API, and translating shaders. It needs low-level systems, reverse-engineering, and graphics expertise, and it carries serious legal exposure.
