Hi,

I'm trying to play Worms Armageddon on the Dreamcast console with another player. So far the best we could come up with is to put two teams in the game, but then both players have to use the same controller, which makes no sense.

Does anyone know how to play multiplayer with each player having its own controller? The Dreamcast supports 4 controllers, so I would assume we could play up to 4 teams, but can't find any setting to set that.

Thanks!

That's because the game is a turn-based tactical/strategic game.
It's played "hot potatoe" style (the equivalent to "hot seat" in the PC version).
More than one controller simply isn't needed.
Increase the hot seat time in between rounds if you feel it's too short to pass the controllers.

Besides, you must not forget that Worms is the perfect party game, more so if played in front of a TV with friends, comfortably seated on a couch.
With multiple controllers, how would you be able to mess up a buddy's turn by pressing buttons during his turn?
That's one of the most essential features of any Worms game actually. :D
