First of all, why are you telling me that? Second, those are some crappy 
monitors you got there. And I have no desire to play the commodore anyway.

No games really needs anything. But split screen makes 2 player games more 
fun. I personally would rather play a racing game split screen instead of 
watching my friend play, and then having him watch me play. And btw, I don't 
even own a N64, so i don't know what you're talking about with that 
commercials reference you made.
