Like I know there was a big crash of licensed games due to dev costs exploding in the HD generation and I know that a lot of kids stuff is on mobile now(and it's utter derivative bullshit) but considering how heaps of families own switches with kids kften havjng their own switch lites, surely at least one major video game company would realise that there's a market for kids' games and at least try to make something moderately budgeted??????
Like Mega Man Battle Network is eating right now but if they make a new mega man game, its probably going to be hyper difficult and aimed at adults. Sonic and Digimon games are largely aimed at at least teenagers now and the only sonic game aimed at families lately was basically made too difficult for kids to beat due to how bullshit the bosses are.
Is it just that people hate kids????? This is why kids aren't getting into conso,e gaming any more, they have no fucking entry point
