If you've been reading my entries on this domain, you might know that I'm actually a gamer. In fact, gaming is one of my hobbies aside from writing. In continuation of one of my previous entries, here's a rundown of 5 "A-list" video games you and your child can play to kill some time. 

1. Super Smash Bros. Ultimate (Nintendo Switch)

  Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is one of the best games you and your kid can play on this list. Why? Well, firstly, this fighting game has a large roster of characters with different attacks and abilities. Secondly, the violence in this game is purely cartoonish, so you have nothing to worry about.

It's also one of the best fighting games in the current generation, so you and your kid should give it a try sometime.

2. Mario Kart 8 (Wii U and Nintendo Switch)

 Mario Kart 8 is worth giving a try if you and your kid are into racing games and arcade-style gameplay, then this game is for you! Mario Kart 8 has you drive a variety of vehicles. From anti-gravity karts to gliding motorcycles, the possibilities are endless! This game also offers a ton of fun tracks to race on!

3. Splatoon 2 (Nintendo Switch)

 If you're looking for something more action-packed, but still low on violence, then look no further! Splatoon 2 not only offers cartoony violence but also ink-packed squid action on the battlefield! In Splatoon 2, you are given an arsenal of non-lethal, paint-loaded weapons, such as paintbrushes, assault rifles, paint buckets, and dual ink pistols!

4. LittleBigPlanet 3 (PS3 and PS4)

 And last but not least, Minecraft. Like LittleBigPlanet 3, this game lets you be creative! But creativity is not the only thing Minecraft has to offer. You can roam around a sandbox area and survive in it in the game's adventure mode!
