Could you build this?
No Porting a PS1 emulator to PS4 requires console-specific exploitation, homebrew kernel-level work, and low-level hardware expertise that vibe coding can't supply.
What it would actually take: It would require a working PS4 homebrew exploit and payload, porting DuckStation's emulation core to the PS4's architecture and SDK constraints, and performance tuning for the console. This is specialized systems and security work with significant hardware-access dependencies.
