Does he have 444 controllers hooked up well? Not really that useful if not.

888 controllers, gotta be ready for multi player

Now, if you feel that the bare minimum is enough, then okay. But some people choose to play four-player Smash Bros. and we encourage that, okay? You do want to play four-player Smash, don't you?

Well I just doubled it. I don't have the information on what each console's ports are to do the real math... I guess over 1000 would probably be close since everything from the past 20 years has had at least 4 and some NES had 4 player as well with a adapter.
