6. Animal Crossing: New Horizons

Of course, an Animal Crossing game had to be on this list somewhere. With each instalment, Nintendo has made the celebrations more and more extravagant. Wild World was the first AC game to introduce villager's birthdays. The player could give them presents, as well as receive birthday cakes and presents of their own.

In New Leaf, villagers started to surprise players with a secret birthday, where they could literally puff on the Nintendo 3DS to blow out candles, as well as receive unique birthday items.

New Horizons follows a similar route. After Isabelle congratulates you in her announcements, the villager you're closest with will invite you to their house, where a surprise birthday takes place. After blowing out the candles, the player can beat a piƱata and get Birthday Cupcakes, which can be given to villagers who didn't attend the party. Doing so will give the player even more special birthday items for their home. K. K. Slider will also appear in the town playing a special K. K. Birthday song.

It sure does beat Bunny Day.
