1. Nxf7 Qe7 2. Nxh8 Nxe4 3. Bf7+ Kd8 (3... Kd7 4. Qg4+!) 4. O-O seems better.

i think forking the queen and the rook would be better ....after that you could still check the king because the f7 square would be protected

...not Nxf7, forking queen & rook?

Besides taking a pawn and preventing castling, it doesn't seem to do much to take with the bishop.

If you really want to force the king move, you'll probably get the rook instead of the queen, so f7 is still protected for your bishop to check the king from.
