Nintendo Switch Games' Recommendation (3/4 Player Family)

Hi all,

Looking for recommendations for games which can be played amongst 2 kids (8yo and 5yo), mum & dad.

We have Mario Kart 8 and enjoy playing it during these times of lockdown. Wondering what else can we play to keep all of us entertained. TIA

    Our kids ove Mario party and just dance too, also loved Mario odyssey. We recently bought mario U deluxe, whilst not as good as odyssey, you can play up to 4 player cooop and the kids love it - it’s quite a laugh

    • +1 for New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe. Supports up to 4 players and has different characters each with a varying difficulty.

    Hi, on Just Dance for switch I am assuming you dont use a phone, just the little joycon things?! Am i right?

    My suggestion (if you got the stomach for it) is Minecraft. I play with my 2 kids on the big TV in creative mode and they love it. I get them to build a city and then they show me around it. Kills a load of time.

    Cheers

    Mario Maker 2.

    My kids and I play courses together and my son makes courses for me to try (usally pretty crazy ones with 10 bowsers as a boss).

    Minecraft.

    Both kids love it, we muck around in worlds and build stuff in creative.

    Smash Brothers.

    Again we muck around and have fun, usually with cpu/team mates.

    Arms (currently free from your Nintendo online for the next ~4-5days I believe).
    Fun game, wouldn't pay real money for it but you'll get some fun out of it.

    Luigi mansion 3.

    Only a 2 Player but wanted to mention it, me and my 4yr had a lot of fun nights with this one, he loved playing as goo-luigi.

    I've got kids the same age

    For 4 Player:
    Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe
    Super Smash Bros (Can set handicaps for the young ones and also play 2 v 2 teams or all 4 on the same team against CPU (so everyone wins or loses together)
    Mario Maker 2 (Harder for the kids)
    Animal Crossing (can do 4 player couch co-op) My daughters favorite game.

    For 2 Players:
    Pokemon Lets Go
    Captain Toad Treasure Tracker
    Luigi's Mansion 3 (Goo-igi is awesome for a little one)
    Mario Odyssey (Someone is Cappy)
    Yoshi's Crafted World
