I have an old Raspberry Pi 1 (!) still going strong with Batocera Linux running NES, SNES and Mega Drive (Genesis) emulators.

I’m looking for easy multiplayer games that can be played with a 5yo. Non violent and ideally co-op, bonus points if somewhat educational.

I'm still too young to understand Zelda 2, and I played it when it came out!

IMO I think it's less "understand" and more "find a way cheese those bullshit Iron Knuckle fights". I've completed Zelda 2 a few times. Those are still torture and terribly un-fun.

I started it again a few years ago thinking "Now that I'm older, this won't be so hard."

Even by cheesing save states, and googling the tricky bits, I still got stuck in the Death Mountain caves.
