Could you build this?
No A native recompilation of Ocarina of Time requires reverse engineering the N64 binary, building a recompiler and runtime, and porting to new hardware. Vibe coding alone won't supply that expertise.
What it would actually take: Expect a disassembly and decompilation pipeline for the MIPS binary, a static recompiler that emits native code, and a runtime providing N64 hardware emulation for graphics, audio, and input. It also needs Switch 2 platform SDK access and experienced reverse engineers. Game assets must be supplied by the user to avoid distributing copyrighted content.
