don't force that on him, especially the new ones

Look at Kirby games (my boys really liked those, Return to Dream Land esepcially). Splatoon 3 is a fun one if he's into shooters at all.

Is he into Pokemon at all?

Dude, why?

One of the best qualities of message boards is their permanence. Unless you accidentally create duplicate threads, wiping the OP just creates clutter

My boy and his friends love smash brothers, Zelda, Metroid, donkey Kong tropical freeze, super mega baseball, and Mario kart.

I’m sure I’m missing a few.

The Zelda tears is the kingdom is an exploration game with an amazing physics engine for building machines to travel and kill enemies. It’s a boy on a quest to save the princess and the world.

Can’t imagine any boy not connecting with it in some manner.

Luigis Mansion is great

My boys around the same ages play Mario Party all the time.

Unlike us adults, the boys love building weapons.

What's the best controller for this game? My daughter has been watching YouTube videos of this and wants it for Christmas. Thinking about getting one of them. Which is the best?

I just bought super Mario 3D world for my 11 year old for Christmas. I like the idea of us all being able to play it together.
