Reply to comment by [deleted] in Nintendo Switch OLED, the best games suitable for young kids? by Prestigious-Mine-513

Thanks for the suggestions! 👍

I've heard complaints about Minecraft not running well on the Switch that's why I was concerned about getting it. Is this something to worry about? Also, im guessing 2 players is possible in Minecraft?

100% recommend Yoshi's Crafted World would be a hit and it has 2player mode. It also has a mellow mode that helps the player if they need it. Get it!

That's the fun part, you don't have to. Your kids are playing the game, not you.

Yes, two player splitscreen is possible in Minecraft. And while the performance on switch is the greatest (I've personally switched to playing Minecraft on Xbox), for young kids playing the game, it's perfectly fine for casual play.

Super! Any way I can find out if Animal Crossing is split screen aswell or if it would require a second Switch to play two players?

While you can 'technically' play Animal Crossing with two players on one screen, it's not the greatest. The game does not lend itself well to two players on playing on one screen. I would recommend either getting a second Switch to play that, or letting them take turns playing. You can have multiple players on one "island", so taking turns actually could work well, if your kids are okay with that, that is.

Taking turns could work.

You can technically do two players on one switch, but it isn't split screen, and it's far from ideal. I would personally either have them take turns, or get a second switch. Just my recommendation though, it might work to have them both play at once. I just don't think that method of play is necessarily great.
