Couldn't get Ryujinx to work. Complains about prod.keys, it's in the system directory under Ryujinx as I've read to put it. I have no bio either, and haven't found any to download. Thanks but no thanks, I n something that isn't going to stress me out.

Crap, forgot about that. It's actually super easy to get working. I'm pretty sure I have the latest keys and firmware.

I do. Here's where the keys and firmware are:

https://flisterz.throwbackbbs.com/filebase19.html

It's just the two files named "firmware.18.0.0.zip" and
"keys_18.0.0.zip". And here's the instructions to install them. Takes
two seconds:

Just follow those two steps and you're good. Right after it says how to install games as well.

Here ya go.

Simply, I don't want a challenge! That's what a game could offer me. I can't be the only one.

Well, most games are designed to be challenging because people plays them for the challenge.

There are non-challenge games which are aimed at people who does not want to play a winnable game, but just to sit down and relax. Think of stuff like SIMS, or farm simulators.

Yeah, I want to play a game that has a beginning and end, not a sandbox just
to relax. I don't want a challenge, I want a story. With my various disabilities, I can't handle a challenging game.

Nevermind, used google-fu to find the correct link. I'm up and running!
It's starting to get late though, so I'll look at it more tomorrow.

Thanks much! I'm up and running with very little difficulty now! It looks fun. I little kiddy for my tastes, but that's what I have to deal with with
my requirements for a low difficuly game. I just wish I could stretch my CPU and GPUs legs!

No problem. There are a couple other Switch games you might be interested in that fit the bill for what you're looking for on my files site.

Ni No Kuni - Wrath of the White Witch:
Super fun, the story is amazing. Produced by Studio Ghibli (Spirited Away, Kiki's Delivery Service, My Friend Totoro, etc) and released by Bandai.

Pikmin 4:
Not very story driven, but if you like collecting things with a bit of a story behind it, this is your game.

Can't get it to work with my controller :(. Nevermind. I always have some sort of problem no matter what I try. I went into settings and selected the microsoft controller, but the buttons don't do anything on the first screen.
It seems like gaming for me is out of reach. My attitude doesn't help of course, but I expect things to work, which I don't think is unreasonable.

Playing the Zelda game you suggested finally. I had an unwanted houseguest
who had paired a controller I don't use. I unpaired that and now my controller is functional. This is a bit fun but I'm having problems with the first level boss. I'm trying to shoot him from a distance and blocking his fireballs, but when he gets too close he kicks my butt! I really don't want
to have to strategize... I'm not playing to have to think, I'm just wanting
to have some fun getting through a story. There is only normal and hard
mode; no easy mode :(. Even this is too hard for me. My reflexes are extremely poor and my tremors make me accidentally push or miss buttons I'm trying to press. I really need a game with a true easy mode so I can enjoy
the story. Thanks much for the suggestion, though.
