Howdy there young and silver Mongoose here not the type of usual video I make however whenever I was trying to play Minecraft split-screen multiplayer on the Wii U I had a problem the first thing I did was go to youtube and try to look for solution and not only were the First few videos that popped up not helpful but they had misinformation in them so I thought I was going to make a really quick video on how to play split-screen multiplayer on minecraft on Wii U first thing you need to know is that you have to be playing in high Definition so if you’re playing with these cables here you can’t do it sure you can still play multiplayer online but you can’t play locally split-screen next thing you need to know is you see these controllers here that you’ve been collecting over the years they’re all useless you can’t use any of them what You have to use is this controller here which is a Wii U pro controller they run about 50 to 60 bucks depending on where you’re living so whenever you get this controller you make sure it’s synced up to your Wii U and then you try to press The button to join and it’s going to tell you cannot join this game as split-screen is only supported when not displaying the game on the Wii U gamepad or touchscreen so like everybody else I got this I try to figure out how to turn this off and went through the options on The Wii U gamepad actually turned off the screen that still didn’t help so this is the thing that they don’t tell you see this tiny little button here that is what you have to actually press so you press this here and then this block is displayed you can still use it To control but it’s just not going to be displayed on this screen so then you take your pro controller you press the button and it’s going to say press Start to join so you press Start and then you select a user or your favorite me I Don’t have one so I’m just gonna click against me and then there you go you guys are playing locally on minecraft so you can actually do this with up to 4 people so you can have either 4 pro controllers or 3 pro controllers and the Wii U gamepad And you can also do this online so you can have four people in your house playing Minecraft and playing online I was doing this the other night I had a friend over so both of us are playing online on one of my friends maps it was A lot of fun so the other thing that you can do that I should mention also is if you go into your help and options here and then settings user interface you can also make it a split screen vertical when you’re playing two-player I’m not Sure why you’d want to do this but maybe you know it’s better for for your TV situation but anyways I hope this was helpful for some of you guys this has been civil Mongoose videos I member classic gaming now we get old Video Information
