    Millennial parents could buy some $30 8bitdo controllers (they’re very good dual stick controllers for the price), and then download and set up a series of games that have four player split screen…

    …tell their kidso they’re doing a games night and should invite their buddies. Then see what happens.

    If you can still hear them at 1 am, it worked. Make sure to provide snacks and cola.

      As in table top? Pssh, that’s so lame. I kid, I kid.

      But I do think it’d be “exclusive” to setup your own kids with a split screen experience, with platforms that seem new and exciting. Just peddle it as “exclusive,” and it’ll sell hotter than hotcakes.

        I was thinking more get on the pirate sites (steamrip) after finding out “best split screen PC games”… And there’s some pretty cheap overhead projectors these days. The HAPPRUN H1 for instance is extremely cheap, but still quite bright.
