Could you build this?

No A working Nintendo Switch emulator requires deep CPU/GPU emulation, reverse engineering of proprietary console hardware and firmware, and years of accumulated compatibility work. Vibe coding cannot substitute for that expertise.

What it would actually take: A real version needs a cycle-accurate CPU core, GPU translation (e.g., Maxwell-style shaders to Vulkan/OpenGL), audio and timing emulation, and extensive per-game compatibility work. It requires a team with emulator and reverse-engineering experience, and the legal risk of distributing firmware or keys is significant.
