Games that a 5 year old can play

Am I the only one who LOVES to play as Bowser/Koopa in the Mario Kart and SSB games?
In Mario Kart I liked using him for bashing competition off road. In SSB, he's too slow and too big a target to be used averagely.

It makes you awesome, that's what it does. My whole world back then was built on FPS games like Doom, Quake II, Unreal, and the like. They're still far superior to most FPS games I've played.

Also Sims is a good simple game for funsies.

Sims is probably one of the things that ruined me as a child the fastest.

I would lock them in rooms and watch as their lives ticked away by way of lack of sleep or starvation, or just watch them burn themselves to death. The Sims is the one game that is pretty much guaranteed to bring out the worst in me. I think it has to do with the fact that you can never really please the little fuckers. You can have their needs perfectly balanced, only to have them get a little too depressed and ruin everything.

This was fixed somewhat in The Sims 3, but then I found out that a fat woman locked in a trailer with a pizza on the lawn that she can't get to, will actually draw amusement from the Grim Reaper and she will never die. [evil smile]

I'm pretty much with anyone here who hinted at the Virtual Console on the Wii. It's full of amazing games a younger person could pick up and play; lots of us here used to play the NES and SNES games when we were that age, after all!

Oh god I thought I was the only one who did this.

I personally chose to stop playing Sims, just because it gives me horribly malicious thoughts.

No sir. I started playing The Sims when it came out. After trying my best to actually beat the game, I got extremely fed up with the whiny bastards and became hellbent on total Sim Genocide. Fuck. The. Sims. [period]

Yoshi's island is fun and adorable, although I'm not 100% sure it would be easy enough for a child to play much of it.

Okami has combat which is just button mashing for non-bosses, the characters and story are a cute funny fairy tale with minor scary parts, but there is a ton of reading and the boss fights are a bit more complicated because they involve solving a puzzle while fighting.

If you play games with an emulator or game shark or something like that you could enable cheat codes to make any game easier (infinite lives or whatever).

When my brother was 5 he was mostly playing things like the Jump Start and Dr. Seuss PC games.

I've always had issues with gaming AIs in general... but god damn. I don't even know if I can still classify that as intelligence.

The hell am I reading, here?
Get some classic 8-bit stuff in the Wii Shop (or "otherwise"). At that age I was hooked on the original Metroid, exploring the depths of Zebes. Still one of my favorites even though the entire layout is now etched in my brain forever.

Any game really, after the basics are understood everything is pretty much cake since games arent the hardest thing in the world. Unless it has some problem that requires previous knowledge like history, cultural etc knowledge he ll be fine.

Just let the kid alone with a game and he ll find out unless you never want him to think for himself and have everything ready from parents or buyable sources...

edit: You dont even need to know english if your another country in order to play a game, just let the kid alone and he ll find out, its one of the few times that humans are forced to think and shouldnt be wasted

'Artificial Stupidity' I believe is the term you're looking for.

I believe the "Mario and Sonic" Olympic Games (normal and winter games) are easy to figure out. I haven't played either versions in a long time, but I remember they were pretty simple (and quite a workout at times!)

I also agree with Mario Party being suggested.

Well, I could list a ton of good games right now. Star Fox 64, Sonic Colors, Pokemon Stadium, Pokemon Stadium 2, Sonic Adventure, Sonic Adventure 2, Banjo Kazooie, Sly Cooper, almost any of the Legend of Zelda games (I highly recommend Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask, and the Wind Waker), Donkey Kong 64, Rayman 2... Hell, this list could go on forever.

Plants vs Zombies. Amazing game. It's a PC game and just about any PC should be able to run it, I think. It's pretty simple and colourful, so it should be suitable for children, but it's also very addictive. You'll probably like it, too.

That's a little bit twisted IMO.

Get yourself a PS3 and then grab the sly cooper series. They're absolutely great games that he can be entertained by whether he's playing or watching.
