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.

City Connection, Bugs Bunny's Crazy Castle. While neither are co-op my mom and took turns playing crazy castle on the nes when I was a kid and we beat it. Core memory right there.

I think Tetris or Doctor Mario had 2 player modes but I'm not sure.

Does Sonic Spinball on the Genesis have multiplayer?

Does Sonic Spinball on the Genesis have multiplayer?

Technically yes, but it's old arcade style "pass the controller, it is player 2's turn" - so not really.
