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.

My kid used to love one of the Kirby games for the Wii, where the three of us could play at the same time. I can't remember the name of it, but I'm pretty sure it was previously released for the SNES. It was the one with Armor Knight, if I'm remembering the character name correctly.

Meta Knight?

Sorry, yes, Meta Knight :)

Kirby's return to dreamland for the wii probably, but I doubt the old raspberry pi's could run it

Yeah, that's the one. I've just checked the Wikipedia page for it, and it was rereleased on the Switch, so I've got it muddled up.

Apologies OP :)
