My son loved Checkerd Flag, it looks like Roblox and you get to crash alot.  Those were his answers as to greatest Atari game.

 

I Would say power Drive, NBA jam, super burnout would be good

Power Drive Rally has precise controls. I suspect a child would experience a lot of frustrating wall crashes, hopefully with less cursing than when I wall crash.

I wonder if there are any Jaguar kids who are 30+ years old now?

 

Actually yes.  When I first got a Jaguar my friend's kids were practically infants.   Now they are late twenties and into their thirties.

 

Over the years they liked:

 

Bubsy (to watch, terrified them to play... too hard.)

Tempest 2000

Super Burnout (they played the CRAP out of that game)

Battlesphere (especially networked)

And Doom, because their Dad already introduced them to Doom on the PC.

 

And actually a lot of Theme Park.

Checkered flag has gone down well! Precisely for the reason grown ups hate it - it’s impossible to control so you get ‘cool flips’ of the car

So it seems, after a lot of testing, the top options for a 4 year old (based on a data point of 1!):

 

- Val D’sere skiing (on training mode)

- Super burnout (I thought this would be too hard but the sort of auto steering meant she didn’t really need lightning reactions or actually even be steering in the right direction sometimes!! 

 

 Thanks for all the suggestions

My eight year old really enjoys Val D'sere skiing. We can play it together for hours.
