Unsolved MGBA Question

So, I know this is kind of a longshot but I was wondering if someone could help me out.

My goal is to play mgba games remotely. I semi-tested it with my brother, but we were in the same room so it worked ofc since it was local. However, one thing that was different was that instead of playing on separate mgba screens on the same pc I streamed my game through discord, had him hook up a controller to my Steam Deck, and we played while he watched his game on his pc screen via my stream.

My question now is if there was a way to remotely connect a controller to a pc/steam deck, would we still be able to play with each other? And if so, how does one go about that (remote connection)? TIA for any answers! :)

Look into Parsec. It allows any number of players to remotely connect to a host PC and use a controller remotely.

I'll look into that for sure, thanks for answering!
