Have you ever played Child of Light? It’s a more modern game, but I think both you and her would like it. It’s a very fun platformer/JRPG with gorgeous, hand-drawn graphics. It also stars a little girl wearing a crown. My daughter loved it when she was your daughter’s age, and I be your daughter would like it too.

Own it, have played it, but not beaten it! You're right, I should give it another look.

I've stumbled upon the habit of putting on Let's Plays (no commentary) of Breath Of The Wild at night when trying to get my daughter to settle down. It turns out that the ambient nature sounds of that game are pretty soothing to a baby. And me.

I'll second a playthrough of child of light, really great game.

I played a lot of Breath of the Wild when my child was still just an infant. On your former Switch, Noise!

ha! That's right.

BOTW was the first game I bought with my Switch. And it was the first game I bought with my second Switch. Haha.

The playthrough videos make me want to play it again, though I've got a whole stack of games I don't have time to play right now as it is.

I have the very same problem.

New dads...you better get used to portable gaming! It’s all you’ll really have time for in the coming years. The ability to “hibernate” your system during a kid emergency is critical.

Where the heck is the Retro Modern Games thread? Thought we had one.

Blazing Chrome is out TOMORROW.

Looks insanely amazing. I've watched this trailer like 20 times tonight.

This is the story of Sheena's daughter. The aliens and machines must still be stopped.

I don't think it's physically possible for that video to be any more 90s.
