I just got a RG353v and a friend at work has a modded switch. We were planning on playing games at lunch and I am looking for recommendations. We are both fans of 4-5th gen and will probably play those the most. Any genre of game is fine, co op or competitive is fine too. So far we have windjammers as a go to but I want to dig deeper and get weird with it.

Like 20 years ago some pizza chain gave out a very cheap but very well made local multiplayer game similar to Mario Party for Xbox (like, maybe legit just Xbox, the very first one)

Everything was janky, but in a consistently janky way.

So if you picked it up for the first time, it didn't make sense. Especially because it was just a hodgepodge of random minigames with the only consistent thing what color your avatar was. But it didn't take long to learn the game logic, and the games were fun and had replay value. The most memorable thing is they put you in those hamster balls from American Gladiators, and that's what was in the disc label.

I'd be really surprised if there was a ROM of it today, or if anyone even remembers it. But for like the year they were giving them out, everyone had it.

Fusion Frenzy by chance?

Yep, knew it as soon as I saw the name, but I clicked the link for the American Gladiator Hamster ball
