Yeah, that's essentially what dolphin does. You need to make sure that the clients are all the same version. And that everyone has the same save file, I believe. Everyone connects via a code given by the traversal server, but I believe it's still peer to peer.
So the players need to be relatively close geographically. For non-serious games I (east coast) can play as far as the midwest or so. But for good connections for competitive games, I have to stick to east coast.
> with a third column that sometimes your friends come over and play on the same screen
Before covid19 this is primarily how we would play mario party. It's definitely more fun in person, but still fun in zoom.
- vmception 7y agooooh that's really cool! haha so you have to pretend not to screen watch on a game where everybody is using different screens lmao yo dawg I heard you like multiplayer, so I put co-op in your co-op so you can screen watch while you ping watch
