Breath of the Wild at #1 is a big reach. Game was good but not revolutionary

So many first party Nintendo titles on that list

So I’m back. I bought my son a switch lol. Might make some more Mario maker 2 levels...

I went back and played yoshis crafted world with him...this time around I finished the game and got most of the flowers. It wasn’t as boring since I’m using it to teach him how to play platformers and mellow mode helped him understand the concept of hovering a little better as well as how hard it can be the collect things in levels. The music is still trash and I don’t know if it’s the backgrounds or what but the game seems sparse as far as enemy placement/things to do.

Some of the later levels and boss fights were kinda dope tho. The piranha planet and train boss fights were flames. Bowser wasn’t bad either.
They could have done so much more if they’d give us a yoshis Island game like wooly world, Island or something similar to new super Mario Bros u in difficulty, music and creativeness with the platforming. Before I would have given this game like a 2. Now I feel like it’s a 5.5 or so out of 10. Yoshis speed could have been increased 25%, music is trash, gameplay is relatively decent but a step back from WW. Boss fights are ok but the music really takes away from them and most are easy. Burt could have been way better. Wooly world was like an 8.5 out of 10 and yoshis Island a 10 out of 10.

I’m playing Mario odyssey again too. I wasn’t feeling this game initially (when it first came out) but after playing through galaxy recently I appreciate it more and don’t mind the bigger emphasis on collecting as much and my son is decent at it.

Any recommendations for him? He’s only 4.
He thinks he wants to play dkc but he’s not ready for that smoke lol. We’ll go back to smb1-world before I teach him dkc1-3 and tropical freeze. I wish they’d make a dkc returns port.

He has sonic mania. He’s good at sonic 1-3&knuckles (can beat most of the stages on his own but isn’t able to get any chaos emeralds yet) and we played through most of sonic mania before playing and beating crafted worldand olaying odyssey.

 

[Blue Mamba]

Get him the Geand Theft Auto remastered trilogy

My 4-year old loves Odyssey and 3D World…

I haven’t branched out too much further than that. Started him on Mario Kart recently and he ebbs and flows with how much he enjoys it. Gets frustrated.

Yet no Tropical Freeze

Damn 4yr olds playing video games on their own correctly? I would think they’re just button mashing and not play the objective right lol

It’s… terrifying?

They’re way smarter/more adaptable than you’d think.

I didn’t play until I was about 6 and that was the first nes. So 4 sound kind of early to me to believe it

 

[WesleyPipes]

Played ocarina when I was 5

 

[Master Zik]

Played ocarina when I was 5

Did you beat it?

 

[Ricky D]

If your parents play video games, I can see you playing at a young age. My kids probably have controllers in their hands since they were toddlers. My 7 year old probably beat his first game, LEGO Ninjago, when he was about 5. He’s 7 now and playing Madden

 

[floodarea]

the first time i ever played a video game was when i was 4 or 5 and it was sonic 1 on the genesis

i’d get to marble zone and call it a day

 

[stay lurkin]

My earliest video game memory was some Coyote vs. Roadrunner games on Nintendo. I had to be 4.

 

[WesleyPipes]

Nope but I did cut some grass

 

[Ricky D]

I grew up playing NES and SNES with my Mom. Castlevania and Mario

 

[KingParappa]

I’ve been playing since I was 2. Duck hunt used to have me pissed

 

[Blue Mamba]

I played pong when I was in the womb

 

[Lizakers]

Mario and the gold Zelda cartridge started it all for me age 7

Which gold cause that was like for 3 of them

Which gold cause that was like for 3 of them

the first. The NES one that started it all

 

[Liquid Swords]

My 4 year old plays Mario Kart and Smash Brothers on the switch. He’s not that bad. He kills it on Minecraft on the iPad tho. I don’t even know how to play that game and he built an entire village with a zoo

 

[stay lurkin]

I grew up playing NES and SNES with my Mom. Castlevania and Mario

My mom used to just sit and watch me play. Said my happiness and determination to figure games out and beat them brought her joy. She rented that Road Runner game like 5 times until I beat it. Same with this Godzilla game at the time.

That ign list is horrendous no donkey country returns or tropical freeze, mega man x, sf 4, marvel vs capcom 2 amongst other notable omissions. Disco Elysium in the top 10
