I feel for you guys that love genres that are basically "Arcade mode only." That's doomed to always be both niche developed, likely Anime girl focused, and a huge risk of your once every few year game sucking.
My closest love is Gauntlet, which should be an easy sell in the modern era but has had one total game in close to 20 years and it sucked.
Gauntlet Dark Legacy is the epitome of what pure fun and coop gameplay should be. No fluff, no dancing around it, just distilled enjoyment for you or your boys.

The arcade games from the early 00's were a pain to move around. Heavy and weirdly shaped.
Oh, I loved Gauntlet as a kid. Wizard always needed food badly.
