Thank you so much dude...you're the only person who actually answers the question. I've been looking all over the internet for the way to do this. I really appreciate your help. Thanks for posting! Thumbs up!
Richard Denis THANK YOU VERY MUCH!! I was seriously on the verge of a mental breakdown, trying in vain to help my grandchildren play lego marvel superheroes!! The disappointment on their faces was disheartening I left questions on PSN, on Amazon, on the lego marvel game reviews!! NO LUCK! 1 quick search here and a few video seconds later and life has purpose again!! Thanks so much! Subscribing and liking!! THANKS AGAIN!
Thanks man that really help me alote I seen like 4 diferent videos and none help me out like yours did .i hope your kid is feeling better by now cuz she was coughing up a storm
I got my PS4 literally a few hours ago, and i had the same problem. Thanks for the help, the entire thing was very confusing since it wasn't like that on the older consoles... :)
omg after hours on google trying to figure this out so i can play tekken with my fiancé and nothing worked i saw this video and boom it works on both of our accounts!! thank u so much for making this video u saved me so much to have to call PlayStation network!
Oh wow.. Thank u! Finally I don’t need to pass around my 1st controller. My 2nd controller is collecting dust. How I wish PS4 programmers made this more user friendly like when you hit the 2nd controller’s button, as you did- it will automatically pop up and ask if you want to use as 2nd controller (guest mode) ,thereby no need for that log on / add new user selections, that made the flow intimidating & confusing.
The fact that I just spent half an hour trying to play NHL with my son and no obvious way to play 2p vs. He's now in bed, so I didn't even get a game with him and you have just solved the problem. I appreciate your help, thank you. But as a side note, it is a fucking shit and confusing way to do 2 player. I expect better from Sony. I've had a PS4 for 5 years but only usually play 1 player. That in 5 years how to play 2 player has never made itself obvious is pretty stupid from a design standpoint. I literally expected to turn on and see a choice of 1p / 2p. Instead I got 17 game mode options and not a single thing explaining how to play 2 player local. Anyway you solved the problem. Thanks very much.
If your still having problems on how the video is showing you then try this method below. I had the same problem and every time I went to press the second controller PS button it flashed white then it went yellow but I did the following and it worked for me. Go to settings Devices Bluetooth devices From there, hold the share and PS button on the second controller till it does a weird flash. The ps4 should recognise the device and there ya go select it with the first controller and now you have two working. :) Oh by the way Richard, get your daughter some cough medicine and she sounded bad so help the poor child.
Thanks a lot mate. I never saw anyone mention anything about adding user, play as guest. I hate ps4 and all the login confusion. Or maybe I'm just a dumb ace. Either way, thank you for this video!
Nelson Smith yea he worried about the ps4 controller tip that doesn't even work he already had that synced in the first place it doesn't just turn red like that. it just blinks and turns back off when I try it.. and he needs to take care of his kid lol
Ahhhh thanks man. Mad a account for when I play fifa and have friends around was always wondering why I had to keep connecting to another user. This was a help. Thumbs up 👍👍
hy so if i buy a new ps4 with 2 controller and i want to play with fifa16. will i be able to do that? just beacause i have heard that for multiplaying i need to pay... or how i that? multiplaying is not 2 player mode? or now i can connect both contorller to be able to play for example fifa16? please help me ! thanks
Thank you thank you thank you I’m a mom who isn’t used to PlayStation and I find it annoying. It ask a thousand questions before I can play a game. I miss Nintendo 64 😂
No problem glade i could help also don't forget to subscribe for more how to video's and Feel free to ask me any question I'll try and figure them out for you and post a response video on You tube!!!
I got my controller to pair, eventually. The problem seemed to be the usb cable I was using, I tried two cables, both charge phones and transfer data perfectly, but would not pair a ps4 controller. I then used the cable supplied with the ps4 which was in my room as i use it to charge my phone as it is nice and long......and ta da, paired right away. So, not sure if this is the reason or if I have two usb cables that seem to function perfectly well but have a fault that only affects this function...or sony configure their usbs differently.
ThX so much I’m just 10 and I wanted to play with my friends on ps4 and I kept searching but nothing helped and I finally found the right vid thx good video
hard connect it first with the USB cable from the PS4 to the new controller and it should automatically pick it up then press the ps button on the controller and now it should work. .
Uh oh. I broke my other controller which I only had one. And I bought a new controller, and well. I can't seem to get it to connect, so is this only do able with the original controller or is there a way to make it work?
THANK YOU! This is our first PS.. anything since the original.. lol. and I was like WHY cant I get it connected. Games kept saying to press the options button and im like ITS NOT WORKING.. THANK YOU!!
+Richard “Richman” Denis Thanks for the quick reply man, yeah my buddies are playing split screen on BO3 right now and I only have 1 mic and when I plugged it into the second controller I got a notification that it's connected but game chat doesn't work
i think it will only enable if your 2 players are on a online game but if it were to to a face off against each other it won'tby default , hence you guys are in the same room ..but when i get a chance i'll try it out.
*Legend says that the kid is still coughing to this day*
Lmao haha!

press and hold the PS button then tap the share button and will connect the controller then you can proceed with this so you can play 2 players.
you need to pair it first you didn't follow my instructions my kid as sick for a few days before i posted this 2 years ago
The kid says oof?
