Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I think interesting the idea of ​​multiple devices playing multiplayer

Describe the solution you'd like would be a local p2p connection existing on a client/server, whether or not it can transmit or control (depends on the capacity of the device). but the client input are passed to the server.

It would have a configuration to allow hosting ingame menu for when decides to be the server.

For those who are going to play as a client there would be an emulators selection menu that displays the option to pair devices.

Describe alternatives you've considered As for peripherals, there are no connection alternatives for an esp32. I just don't know how much bluetooth or wifi can worst performance, an alternative would be a link cable.

Additional context I find it strange that someone did not create a topic about it, but consider it a good resource and I intend to do some tests tried this.
