Request for Couch Co-Op Games on Switch (programming.dev)

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!

I haven't played my switch in years but here's a few I remember

No reload heroes - childlike but unsure of content approval for 7yo due to guns, walk around and shoot robots, find better guns as you play. If your lil buddy dies they can be revived by standing on them.

Nine parchments - be a mage and pew pew monsters on your way to collect 9 spells. Might be a little harder for a 7yo. Absolutely turn off friendly fire. Same revive by standing on downed body mechanic.

Blaster master - old metroidvania type game remade for switch that adds a 2p mode where 2p just moves target on the screen and shoots things. You control the main guy and progress while your little buddy helps you shoot all the baddies.

Mario + Rabbids kingdom battle. Super fun turn based tactical combat. Silly story. A+ game

Also you mentioned Mario Kart being a pvp type but MK 8 has a 4v4 team mode that is pretty fun to play, it's basically just who's team gets the most points in solo race format. When I played I would let my partner be in 1st and then guard them from 2nd place. Sometimes we would switch. With both of us being on the same team, it didn't matter which order we were in.
