Yeah, it's obviously just a crude razor. What I meant is that if it's not on Nintendo, it's a sign you should be more diligent as a parent. Obviously you should always monitor and ideally play the games your kids play yourself, but I can imagine not all parents do that. The Nintendo test is a reasonable alternative, my mom did it in the 90s and I had enough fun games even if I missed out on a bunch of cool PC and Sony titles.

Agreed, just thought worth pointing out to anyone reading your comment that a game not being on Nintendo doesn’t necessarily mean that it’s not child-friendly (lots of people don’t realise that making a game work on different platforms involves actual dev work rather than just an equivalent of “file -> save as -> choose platform”)
