zoomers are instantly turned off by bad graphics and clunky controls. So 5th gen games are are really bad recommendation, 5th gen hasn’t aged well at all. Where as 2D 4th gen games still look great and control great. Early 3D was the early awkward puberty years for games. And 3rd gen games are too primitive and basic.

Speaking from personal experience having my nephew play some of my old games. He didn’t like NES or N64 at all, he really liked the SNES era games though.

Can't help but feel telling anybody to kill themselves is nothing but an omen on yourself. Probably end up having someone in your family or maybe your own kid do it someday. Be nice.

Kirby Super Star is a dead giveaway imo
Two-player, good playability, a variety of shit to do, some different flavours of game mode (hide n go seek, race to the finish, and 'you can't copy')

>>5475501
>RotK
What the fuck kind of troll list asks a goddamn zoomer to play Civ or RotK you complete retard?
The point is that if zoomers had that kind of attention span they'd probably have long found these themselves. These guys want something fun and fluffy to play on a controller that gives them loose social cred, like a cult classic or a home-run hitter of a mainstay series. Why the fuck do you think Earthbound gets so much attention? Because people wanna be in on the jokes and the know, even though most zoomers or zoomer-likes who play it end up saying 'it's just an RPG.'

Oh, I forgot.

I'd work backwards. Maybe something like Spyro or Mario 64, and then work back to Mario World and DKC 1-3, and then onto NES stuff like Mario 1-3 and Megaman.
I only really have experience with nintendo and sony stuff lmao
