Well, here's the most dangerous (not) strange, just plain stupid thing ever. Ever tried playing two video games at ONCE? I have. Well, I turned on my Wii to play Mario Kart, when my brother said, "I wanna play Guitar Hero" so he turned it on. Since both our Playstation 2 and Wii are tuned to Video 1, I saw the words, "Playstation 2" and "Press A to continue" go on screen. So, I started a race, while my brother played Cherub Rock on Expert. So, the graphics are horrible. You can barely see anything. LOL, it's pretty funny. I got last place, and he got booed off stage. Discuss, and PLEASE NO SPAM!

You have the 2 systems tuned to video 1 you must be using cable slitters right? That's the only way I can think of two signals appearing on the screan at once.

Yeah I'm drawing blanks also. I don't try with two consoles, I've tried (more forgot that I left one plugged in) to watch a DVD while my Wii is connected.

No dice.

Ahh, no. Not really. Don't see how its possible...
How you described it anyway.

I've done this though. In a DK game on the SNES (1 or 3) there is an underwater level where it reverses your controls. I popped a mirror infront of the TV and played watching the mirror.

This was over 10 years ago...

I have one of those, although it can send 4 signals through at once if you don't know what you're doing. It's pretty hard to watch Scrubs will playing GTA IV and SSBB at the same time!

Yes, picture in picture is possible, I was just watching So You Think You Can Dance on DTV and played Naruto on a smaller AV2...

But the OP says he was playing two systems on the same channel/input, with half of each game showing up...

Here's one. Can anyone play MarioKart Wii with the wiimote, whilst holding a DS, playing MarioKart DS. You could tee-up the same level. I will try it later, sounds like I will feel... quite silly

Guyver said: You have the 2 systems tuned to video 1 you must be using cable slitters right? That's the only way I can think of two signals appearing on the screan at once.


For example: My TV has one AV2 input in the back and one AV2 input on the side, a silly design but thats how it could happen.
And anyway, if you really are McGuyver, as you say you are, you would know that cable splitters can be made up from a shoelace and an old LP record.

LOL. but he aint McGuyver, he is Guyver, Dark Hero! as his avitar shows Guyver> chuck Norris > McGuyver

Also i can get this going with up to 5 inputs. I use an old AV splitter/selector box from tandy to run all my consoles into the one spare AV (foxtell and dvd/vcr have the other 2). If i jam the buttons in (ie hold more than one in at once) they stick there and try to share the single output with varied scrambled effects. Ps2/N64/NES/Xbox/wii anyone?
