I’m looking for something new to play with my 7yo son. Mario games are a great amount of fun, but I’m feeling pretty burnt out and am looking to expand things a little bit. We are looking for cooperative games like Pikmin 3, Cuphead, and Hyrule Warriors rather than competitive-only games like Super Smash Brothers and Mario Kart. We appreciate whatever help you all can offer, so thanks in advance!

Unrailed is a cute, arcade-like, cooperative railroad track-builder.
Death Road to Canada is a hilarious parody of Oregon Trail set in the thick of a modern-day zombie apocalypse, and would help with his vocabulary-building. It’s clean and has no profanity (and the zombies have black blood).
Overcooked 2 is a blast, but it can be really difficult too.
I’m gonna vote for the Kirby’s Return to Dreamland remake. It’s playable in single player, but it was built with one-screen co-op in mind.
Good Job was a lot of fun. I played it with my daughter when she was about that age.
Ultimate Chicken Horse is easy and bloody fun. You have to get from point a to point b with your character multiple times and each time you either die or make it. Each turn you also place an obstacle each. Really fun. It’s a favourite in our household. Edit: sorry I didn’t read your whole post. While it is competitive it’s still fun… And different.
There’s a game on NES that I highly recommend called Trog.
I believe it’s actually an arcade game but you can still play 2 player on NES.
You play as dinosaurs collecting eggs ala packman while avoiding cavemen. There’s a power up bonus that turns you into a T-Rex so you can smash them.
It’s a ton of fun.
