I see you already have a ton of recommendations, but I’ll throw in the Zowie/BenQ mice. I’ve had mine for I think 6-8 years and it’s still going strong.

I was surprised to hear neopets is still a thing. A friend went and checked it on a whim.

I definitely liked diddy better, just because years later I remember the ‘story’ it had, and the fun of exploring the overworld. That magical feeling of getting to space? It was awesome. The challenge/gameplay may have been tighter in mario, but diddy was just overall more fun.
