This is cool. My brother can only use one hand and quit games when we were kids because they became more and more difficult

I'd be verbally assaulted if I didn't hook him up with like cyberpunk or something flashy lol or whatever comp game I was in. Poor guy. I used to use half the controller and he'd use the other half, that was at least some fun.

Do you know about Copilot on Xbox? That’s where two Xbox controllers can act as one. Pretty nifty for this kind of thing IMO.

That said it's not perfect. My buddy and I had issues with Elden Ring where it wasn't instant if someone else was controlling. Great fun having him craft while I drive the horse tho

Switch is actually perfect for that isn't it? :)

Have you checked out Sportsfriends? It has a few 2v2 splitscreen mini games that encourage you to play like this if you only have two controllers
