Other games in rotation are Mario Kart, Animal Crossing lately (although none of us have really been hooked), I still enjoy Breath of the Wild on occasion even though I finished it a while back. Link's Awakening was fun but pretty basic, but a good throwback to the old days of Zelda.

We have started a weekly game night with another couple after everyone's kids are in bed and we've actually been playing Overcooked 2, which is fun but infuriating. And then a few rounds of Mario Kart.

Surprisingly we have recently decided to re-start Mario Odyssey after finishing it a couple of years ago. I like the music and the game is better looking and funner than I remember the first time around.

Super Mario U and Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze are both perfectly fine re-issues, but nothing new or groundbreaking. I can't say that they get a lot of play.

Wife plays Tetris 99 the most. I like myself a game of FIFA 20 on occasion to get my soccer fix. Mario Party is a good standby for a group game, but it obviously needs 3 or 4 people to be really fun. It has a small online option, but with a very limited number of mini games.

A game that is arguably really good that I just can't get into is Super Smash Brothers. Just not my genre.

As you can see, I'm not a super hardcore gamer or anything, and I do enjoy the Nintendo-style titles. My wife and I actually play the Switch more than our kid does.
