News - Feature: Best Nintendo Switch Games For Kids - xSicKxBot - 02-09-2020 Feature: Best Nintendo Switch Games For Kids <div><div class="media_block"><a href="http://images.nintendolife.com/e7e0fd7a67ecd/large.jpg"><img src="http://images.nintendolife.com/e7e0fd7a67ecd/small.jpg" class="media_thumbnail"></a></div> <p>Nintendo Switch is a console with brilliant software for gamers young and old. Over the years Nintendo has fostered a wholesome, family-friendly image which is well-earned, and with characters like Mario, Luigi and the rest of the Mushroom Kingdom gang, Switch has a tide of games that cater to the young and the young-at-heart alike. With its excellent <a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2020/01/guide_got_yourself_a_new_nintendo_switch_do_these_things_first#bought-the-switch-switch-lite-for-a-child-then-set-up-parental-controls">parental controls</a>, the Switch is the perfect console for kids.</p> <p>The success of the hybrid handheld has led to such a wide variety of games across all genres, including many that might not be appropriate for your young ones due to their mature content.</p> <p>With that in mind, we’ve rounded up the very best kids games on Switch arranged in a general ascending order of age appropriateness. We’ve included <a href="https://www.esrb.org/ratings-guide/">ESRB</a> and <a href="https://pegi.info/what-do-the-labels-mean">PEGI</a> ratings in addition to our own minimum age recommendations based on the level of coordination and skill needed to have fun with the game. Remember these are <em>only a rough guide</em> based on our personal experience and – of course – you are the best judge of what is appropriate for your child. Generally speaking, the games towards the back half tend to involve more reading and more complex controls. That doesn’t mean your ten-year-old won’t also love the choices at the beginning, though – ‘minimum’ is just that and doesn’t exclude older kids (or, indeed, adults). Every single game below is a winner, whatever your age.</p> <p>Many kids might enjoy simply watching as <em>you</em> play a game (something like <strong><a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/nintendo-switch/legend_of_zelda_breath_of_the_wild">The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild</a></strong>, for example). If so, bully for you! The eShop is your oyster.</p> <p>It’s also worth noting that there are plenty more games aimed at kids on Switch. We’ve concentrated on the very best examples but as you’ll be acutely aware, kids like what <em>they</em> like. If your child gets utterly engrossed in some $0.12 eShop ‘garbage’, no amount of lovingly-crafted wholesome <em>quality</em> software is going to persuade them otherwise!</p> <p>So, let’s take a look at the best kids games on Nintendo Switch…</p> <div> <div class="list-item"> <div class="list-hero" data-subject="games/nintendo-switch/mario_kart_8_deluxe"><img src="http://images.nintendolife.com/85b0d4031434a/mario-kart-8-deluxe-artwork.900x250.jpg" width="900" height="250" alt="Mario Kart 8 Deluxe (Switch)"><a class="cover" href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/nintendo-switch/mario_kart_8_deluxe"><img src="http://images.nintendolife.com/802713810685c/mario-kart-8-deluxe-cover.cover_small.jpg" alt="Mario Kart 8 Deluxe (Switch)"></a></p> <div class="list-hero-info"> <p><span>Publisher: </span><strong>Nintendo</strong> / <span>Developer: </span><strong>Nintendo</strong></p> <div class="release"><span>Release Date: </span><strong>28th Apr 2017 (<abbr title="United States / North America">USA</abbr>)</strong> / <strong>28th Apr 2017 (<abbr title="UK / European">UK/EU</abbr>)</strong></div> </div> </div> <p><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong>ESRB: Everyone, PEGI: 3, NL minimum age <strong><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong>recommendation</strong></strong></strong></strong></strong></strong></strong></strong></strong></strong></strong><strong>: 3</strong></strong></strong></strong></strong></strong></p> <p>We kick things off with <strong><a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/nintendo-switch/mario_kart_8_deluxe">Mario Kart 8 Deluxe</a></strong>. This kart racer is arguably the most welcoming game on Switch with tons of accessibility options – including auto acceleration and steering aids – to give even the tiniest humans the chance to get involved on the racetrack. The aids are generous to the point where you can turn them on, leave the controller alone and still place 4th. Hardened gamers may balk at that notion, but it’s <em>perfect</em> for very young kids who want to move up from spectating and feel included in the fun.</p> <p>If for some reason you prefer your <a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/news/2020/01/feature_best_nintendo_switch_kart_racing_games">kart racers</a> with less moustachioed plumber in them, <strong><a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/nintendo-switch/team_sonic_racing">Team Sonic Racing</a></strong> and <strong><a href="http://www.nintendolife.com/games/nintendo-switch/crash_team_racing_nitro-fueled">Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled</a></strong> both provide solid, if less remarkable, alternatives.
