The IB concerns aside, attempting to build your own "more than one view 
controller on the screen" solution is currently fraught with peril, and 
something you'll probably get wrong. The window expects to have a single 
rootViewController to handle rotations and such. You're probably better off 
having a single view controller and each of your quad views should just be 
regular UIViews managed by the one view controller. And, if you did that, all 
your views would naturally be built in the one nib that defines your view 
controller :)
