You'd have to get a special video display driver unit (or sumthin) to do that.

Or you probably could hook up your Wii or whatever to a computer through a tv tuner card and then use a video card that'll support dual monitors...

You see, from what I understand, the screens you see at stores that look like tons of screens combined are really custom wired full televisions, not really separate televisions, just separate lcd screens connected to a single specialty lcd driver.
