You could theoretically simply buy multiple of these screens and place them in a grid. Would be slightly annoying when you want to split one window across multiple screens, but I imagine it would still be much more useful.


I've played a Japanese arcade game called Jubeat, that's made up of... I think a 4x4 grid of small touch screens.

With the right interface and design, it feels fine. In particular, Jubeat has a different note assigned to each screen so the divisions feel very natural.

Or maybe just natural to people who put in a bit of practice, lol. This is an expert level song pattern, it's not so bad at earlier levels. But it still shows off how the 4x4 screen effectively communicates a variety of button press timings to the player, combo counters, life, scrolling and other such details for this game.
