I only got the joke due to starwars pod racer, thankyou pod racer! The ancient pc version allowed you to play upto 8 people on a local network, but box requirements states it needed to be IPX. I have a dream of making a 8 player VM machine in one portable box for parties

As someone who has done their router as both a VM and a stand alone physical box, just do a stand alone box. It doesnt take much to run pfsense

Back then, who wasnt? Half life, Homeworld, and tons of other quality games.
