I was wondering, if you connect two portals into one system do they both register, if so can you place on skylander on each portal, therefore being able to have each player use one?

Tried this earlier. For some reason, the wireless portal wouldn't connect, so I don't think it works.

well, this is actually a concept I was hoping they would fire at. A mega portal or a dual portal scheme has got to be in skylander's future. But the series one portal is probably going to be an antique at this point.

Anyone try it with two wired portals?

It works

It didn't for me and I'm on xbox.They both lit up but nothing happened when I placed fright rider on old portal.Or is it only old and S2 that work on it.

Hello Moneysaver,

You can only use one portal per system, and you can use multiple Champions on one portal just like Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure. ^JJ

No they don't, at least not on the PS3 version. In fact if you plug them both in neither will work at all, the lights won't even turn on.

Not saying you're lying, but pics or vid or it didn't happen.

It doesn't work with a wireless and a wired at the same time on a Wii.

I don't get the game till Christmas, my neighbor showed it to me. You just plug in your new portal, place the old portal right next to it so they are touching (make sure not to turn on your old portal) and it works.

I tried on the Wii it says "Too many portal receivers"

Really? It should work on the Wii. Not sure about the other versions.

Holy crap - it does work!

I'm using the wired GitD Portal from the Wii version starter pack and the 3DS portal from S:SA. The Giants portal is plugged in. The 3DS portal is unplugged and... not even on!

It only works if they're side-by-side, as you can see from this poorly shot video!

It works!

UncleBob I'm pretty sure that the portals are close enough together that the wii portal is picking up adjacent skylanders. so not really a double portal. The newer portals have a much larger range than the old ones to help with the light core effect.

cool trick though.

Nope - if you watch the video, you'll see I move the 3DS portal out of the way and try setting the figures down beside it. It doesn't work.

If I had to guess, the antenna in the second portal is getting in range of the first, creating a piggy-back effect. Now I want to try all four portals I have.... Hm.

I wasn't able to get it to work if I put them in a straight line, but I was able to get this to work (notice Tree Rex is lit up while the portal he's on isn't).

Few things - if the second portal is on, this doesn't work. I had turned the 3DS portal on next to the Wii portal and nothing... but as soon as the power saver on the 3DS portal kicked in, *bamn*, he's in the game.

When I have everything in one long line, it doesn't work... but Tree Rex glows ever so faintly. Like, you can barely tell he's glowing. Doesn't put him in the game though.

Stacking all four portals up like a wedding cake works as well.

Well now I can keep everyone in the box and play

I can confirm the double portal method works. I plugged in the new Giant one and simply say the old one next to it and touching and it worked. Me and my nephew played and he used one an I used the other. Pretty awesome. We were having trouble putting Tree Rex and my boxed granite crusher on the single portal lol.

So, four Portals across, this is what Tree Rex looks like...



Compare to this one, which is Tree Rex on the primary Portal (with a black hat on top of the portal to cover up the light from it)

I knew that part, but i was wondering since my brother and i sit on oppostie sides of the living room.
Tried this with my normal wireless portal and 3ds portal on spyro's adventure. It said to remove one portal from the system.

I agree, with my portal from spyro's adventure i get really PO'ec when a tipped over stealth elf faces the portal and placing my double trouble makes the game say there are too many portals.
