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 think there’s also a button the active player can press to switch out.

Either A or Select. On DKC 2 and 3, A gets the other monkey on the 1st's back, so you can throw them at an enemy or on a platform. 2 and 3 also feature a 2 player "competitive" mode, with each player going 1 life or 1 stage
