<li>Phone games - Nintendo usually lets you play in English or Japanese, so Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp and games like that are easily accessible. Japan is a separate region on the appstores, and phone companies make it very difficult to switch over without actually being Japanese. If you can do it, though, COLOPL is the top developer, famous for 白猫プロジェクト and other games. </li>
|

<li>Simple Nintendo videogames like Mario and Kirby are good because you mostly learn from context and do not need to know the story to win. The Switch is region-free, and I think the DS is, too. </li>

<li>Pokemon - most of the games are in kana and are poor options, but Pokemon Black/White uses kanji. </li>
