Could you build this?

No Accessing the Nintendo Switch 2 file system requires console exploits and reverse engineering of proprietary hardware and firmware, which vibe coding cannot supply.

What it would actually take: This would require a working Switch 2 exploit or save-access vector, likely through a Civilization VII save-file or memory-corruption path, plus reverse engineering of the console's storage and security layers. The builder would need low-level security research skills, hardware and firmware analysis tools, and access to a Switch 2 for testing.
