Gaming Suitable games for a 10 year old girl and 5 year old boy

[fowler002]

hi can people suggest games suitable for my 10 year old niece and 5 year old nephew, niece has a new 3ds cl and I'm planning on giving my nephew my old 3ds xl or 2ds.

I could recommend a couple games that you can play online:
- Mario Kart 7
- Kid Icarus Uprising
- Pokemon Sun/Pokemon Moon
- Animal Crossing New Leaf

Anything Mario and Pokemon, the 10yo might like the Zelda games as well.

Terraria, mighty gunvolt burst.

a ball and dolls

ofc mario and pokémon, they are good games for kids
sonic have good games for 3DS too

 

[Foxchild]

No one's mentioned Kirby? Perfect for the younger kids

Also the Lego games

 

[TootieTazzy]

My nieces love the LEGO games. They're around the same age as your two as well. Animal Crossing New Leaf would be good for the 10 year old as well.

and obviously, anything Mario and Sonic wise.

a ball and dolls

Is that a new game

Is that a new game

No, I think it's supposed to be a joke/sarcasm

 

[Bullseye]

Terraria, mighty gunvolt burst.

No Terraria, it has enemies being killed (bunnies and others + blood). I'd vote for Kirby as well.

EDIT: And i would give no game console for the 5 year old one. Too young to start IMHO.

 

[smileyhead]

Is that a new game

no, I'm just saying you shouldn't give gaming consoles to a 10 year old, es-fucking-specially a 5 year old...

 

[fowler002]

No, I think it's supposed to be a joke/sarcasm

Yeah I got that, the iOS emoji dont seem to go through on here it seems.

Any of the "girly" games any good? Or better to stick the "usual suspects"?

If it makes a difference my nephew is actually 6 not 5

For the ten year old I recommend:
Professor Layton series
Phoenix Wright series (may be a little old for her as of now)
Animal Crossing Happy Home Designer and New Leaf
Bravely Default series (again may be too old depending on her preferences)

For both:
Basically any Mario game and Kirby game. Most games have been recommended as of now.

My nephew (started playing at 5, he is now 7 years old) is good at mario kart, and any other racing game.
He also like Donkey kong and plateformer (Dora the explorer !), so it can be anything which captivate him.

he loves anything which involves mario, he is even playing some Mario and luigi RPG in english (he doesn't understand anything and doesn't even read, he is just happy moving and jumping around). he manages to do the battles and move around.
He doesn't seem to understand the purpose of saving the game progress but he doesn't care doing the same step again and again. I guess he doesn't care about reaching a goal, as long as he plays.

well, I didn't give you any suggestion, except mario ! just try and see what they cares about.
let them try and decide
provide few different genre, nobody likes the same thing.

Ps:
My nephew is addicted to screens (tv and video games), not good at this age... I don't know which consequences it will have later. currently, he has issue speaking correctly, but maybe it's unrelated, he just love speaking in his baby language.
If you can, don't let him get addicted this younger, supervise his play session, play with him, etc.

My 8 y/o cousin enjoys playing:

• Luigi's Mansion
• Mario Kart 7
• Donkey Kong Country Returns
• TLOZ: A Link Between Worlds
• Yoshi's Woolly World

Have them play NES/GB/GBC games (or older if you want), and then slowly advance them as they grow older. Upgrade to like GBA/SNES, eventually reach N64/PSX. Hopefully by then, they will be monstrous gamers with godly reaction skills.
