Could you build this?

No Static recompilation of a Nintendo Switch 2 game requires deep reverse engineering of proprietary console binaries and hardware behavior, which vibe coding can't substitute for.

What it would actually take: It would take expert reverse engineers who understand the Switch 2 CPU/GPU, the game's binary format, and the OS services it calls, plus a recompiler toolchain and a runtime that reimplements console APIs. That is a months-to-years effort for a team with console-hacking experience.
