Secret of Mana (SNES)

As one of the consoles most famous titles, there’s a number of ways to play it.

It’ll help develop some of her hand-eye, but in a slower, calmer way she will probably be more than equal to. There’s also a lot of character development and plot, it is a jrpg-influenced game after all.

2 player co-op kicks in about an hour-ish into the game, if memory serves, once the second character enters the story.

Glemek,

I really like Secret of Mana. I think because I’ve already played through it would make it less of a good coop game for them, but if I can get them a little interested in playing on their own I think it would have potential as an early game for them.

money_loo,

Alternatively you can apply the Little Brother technique and just let them win more than they lose in whatever “competitive” game y’all are playing.

Just try to do it in a non-obvious way.

Glemek,

I don’t think they’d appreciate that, and if they found out I think it’d damage the possibility of gaming being a thing we do together at all.

Visual novel types of games, maybe? Anything from Quantic Dream, Telltale

Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime - coop, a bit actiony but less chaotic than Overcooked. Beautiful and cute artstyle.

Kufflebuns,

This was my first thought too. Highly recommend.

Fantastic game, my family has been playing it for years on Switch, starting from when my kids were uselessly young, to now that they are pretty good gamers and it has always been fun. One of the few games my wife plays with everyone.

Glemek,

I think this is one we’ll check out. I bounced off it a few years ago, but I think that was because I played it in a party where I was more interested in just hanging out and catching up with the other players.

Heroes of might and magic 3, hot seat

Glemek,

This seems like a game I would enjoy on my own, but might be a bit to crunchy for my partner at this point.

“It Takes Two”, check it out.

reluctantpornaccount,

I also recommend this game as one of the best co-op / split screen games I’ve played.

jmdatcs,

My wife and I loved that.

Overcooked is only fun if everyone is terrible or everyone is great. It’s a great concept but definitely not going to work out for most groups.

For Mario kart, did you put on some bots? Without the NPCs, 2 player is lame, even if you are both quite good.

Have you played It Takes Two? This sounds like it hits your requirements.

For couch coop, I’d actually suggest Mario Deluxe over the very recent Mario Wonder if you wanted to try a side scroller. Wonder is great, but it’s couch coop is poorly implemented unless you are both good or both terrible as with overcooked. Deluxe doesn’t have that issue, in my opinion, due to the way the scrolling works in game. It might feel odd spending $60 on a 10 year old game from the WII U, but Nintendo originals always hold up well.

Glemek,

I think they struggled to even parse what was going on in overcooked, and need more experience playing games generally to be able to enjoy that kind of chaos because they just felt lost.

Alas, beating bots on Mario Kart means nothing to them.

That’s 2 fast recs for it takes two, so I think thats probably gonna be on the shortlist.

I think I have NSMBU on wii u in storage at my parent’s house. We’re visiting in for the holidays, so maybe we’ll hook up the wii u there and try that. I remember liking that game a lot.

Thanks!

derekabutton,

I actually think that’s what they called Mario deluxe for the WII U. Definitely look into it before buying a 2nd copy of the same game like I did. I mean, I’ve 100%ed it a few times now but still I wish I knew it was the same.

In fact, it’s better on the Wii u. Player 2 can either play as a Luigi or play as god on the Wii pad. Putting down tiles and making the game dead easy.

Honestly disappointed with the combination of batch awards and probably the shortest acceptance speech timer I’ve seen. This game awards felt solely for producers and publishers, not for the people who actually made these games. I get not wanting another 8 min speech, but it left a bad taste in my mouth

ieightpi,

With E3 dead, this is the new outlet form showing off new games I guess

Been rediscovering factorio after a few busy months, it’s not for everyone, but if you look it up and it seems interesting I wholeheartedly recommend you give it a go, it is truly an amazing game

Last Sentinel had a really cool visual style (the half faced android mother thing got my attention).

Kojima’s scary shenanigans looked interesting too :)

The true winners are of course all the marketing departments out there that are just ecstatic about the fact this stupid award shit is normalized now.

How fun to know you can brute force an award show into being “legitimate” by spending a lot of money and being cozy with studios.

@NOT_RICK@lemmy.world avatar

You just described every award show ever.

I’m just glad there’s a big event that can act as a surrogate to what E3 once was.

Archer,

I suppose that was the Oscars at one point as well, but yeah this organization just appeared out of nowhere a few years ago

Why the fuck was Lies of p in the rpg category and not the action categeory with Ac6?
