My 3yos two favorite games are Mario 64 and Rhythm Heaven (in literally any form, but 3ds most approachable). The latter is especially funny that the 1yo is getting in on the references; "Wabba dubba dubba, that true?" and they both go "Un." Might be a Halloween costume in the making.

And don't get her started on those Rock and Roll frogs.

Battletoads? Or is that something from Rhythm Heaven?

I'm not familiar with Rhythm Heaven, but Mario 64 (and Sunshine) has been a big hit in our house too.

The simplicity of the mini games make Rhythm Heaven easy to understand, mostly pushing A or B with proper timing. Mario 64 by contrast they're just excited to find butterflies or make it to a door, moving and jumping at the same time is more hand eye coordination than my 3yo has atm.
