Questions before I spend money

1. Am I able to use/see 2 systems with capture cards or just the 1 with the base software loopy provides? If so is there a way to bypass this?

2. If I am able to use 2 or more systems at once do I need a controller mod on ds or can I just use a controller via pc?

1) You can use 2 or more systems concurrently. Though it mostly depends on how good your USB controller is.

2) Loopy's CCs do not allow controlling the system via an external controller. To do that, you will need a separate mod. (Or homebrew if using InputRedirection on 3DSs)

Yes, you can use two systems at once with multiple windows of the software. However, to record both systems separately using OBS, the windows need to be named separately. For example, I create a copy of the software and name it with "...- copy(1,2,3 etc.)". For controlling multiple DS's at once, a controller mod does need to be installed if you don't want carpal tunnel lol. I recommend Insidegadgets wireless RX flex board for a relatively simply mod that is fully compatible with loopy's DS capture, a youtuber Tracker 707 even has a video of a loopy capture install with a controller modded DS.
