So the goal is to create a short and concise list of Must-Play video games to have your (imaginary) kids play, giving them a solid experience, but not too many games that they become entertainment/video game junkies!

Deus Ex
System Shock 2
Portal

Legend of Zelda
Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time
Legend of Zelda Majora's Mask
The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind
Shadow of the Colossus

Pokemon Yellow?
Star Fox 64?
Banjo Kazooie?
Half-Life series?
Metal Gear Solid series?
Final Fantasy 7 or other JRPG?

Minecraft?

Shit is shit, doesnt matter if retards enjoy it; it's that lack of standards that has degenerated cultures to these current and worsening states

Vidya will help them get used to technology so they arent completely bumbling, Zelda is a solid adventure and Deus Ex works the mind more than Mario ever will

Also working on acquiring literary from history too, Iliad, Odyssey, Aenied, Song of Roland, Digenes Akritos, Knight in the Panther's Skin, Erec and Enite, Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, Jerusalem Delivered, The Faerie Queene

This. Little kids are basically autistic. They will latch onto small things and make it their lives if you let them. Which is why giving kids something as expansive as a tablet very early is not a good idea. Get them stuff that focuses their attention into learning and they'll learn it so fucking fast it'll make your head spin.

Assemble a Pi (or Mister if you care about the quality of their upbringing and future character) and load it up with NES, SNES, Genesis and arcade cores, basically 2D games with that a quick to understand the controls and don't require reading skills would be a good start.

But whatever you do, do not expose them to the N64 in any way, shape or form, don't turn your kid into a N64-kid! It's scientifically proven that the correlation between having been a N64-kid and adult display of beta-cøck søy-mouthritis with male-feminist S.I.M.P creeper syndrome comorbidity is so evident that leading researchers are starting to believe it's developmental late-onset damage directly stems from exposure to the N64 in formative years.

Yeah because your parents let you play the games you wanted and you happened to also like the movies they enjoyed your/OP's plan is the equivalent of sending you to school to listen to all your friends talk about Mario, Castlevania, Street Fighter, Final Fantasy etc while you were only allowed to play Checkers and Crazy Eights because your parents decided the kids you met at school had shit taste.

I tried this with my little cousin who is 12 and watches let's play videos on youtube, plays among us, minecraft and all that shit on his parents laptop with his friends since he doesn't have a game console.

I gave him a Game Boy Pocket with Pokemon Yellow. He liked it, got half way. But then said it broke when the batteries died out.

Not even him but that comic is exactly what OP is doing. Forcing his taste as if it's an objective measure of quality and bitching that anything new that he doesn't like is equally objectively shit. Then he goes and puts three Zelda games on his list. If it's not meant to be comedy it's legit scary how he'd try to raise a child. Might as well force him to watch Mash with you as well.

If they think they're cool, they can play them more, if not, then I won't really worry about it. Well, as long as they aren't playing complete garbage games, might have to set em straight then.

Every generation thinks like this about the future generation's tastes. The fact is, childhood is about learning to socialize, not learning to have good taste. It's not that your taste is bad, it's that if you want to force your taste on your children, you're missing the point. If your children are socially healthy, there will be things that they like simply because their friends like them, and in most cases, you shouldn't do anything about it. It's much better that they're like that than they become the kind of person who thinks having hot opinions about video games is a substitute for a personality.
