do you think this could be used as a base for a full port of pico 8 to playdate similar to crankboy but hopefully beyond just an emulator?
In theory, it could (as both PICO-8 and Playdate share support for Lua). In practice, this port includes a lot of custom rework for performance on Playdate which I'm not sure could be automatized for a general purpose PICO-8 player.
What about a framework for porting games over like the N64 recompiler for PC?
