Why are there so few liscensed games these days?

I remember when there were commercials for stuff as bad as like, madagascar 2 party mini-games. What happened?

it's just that most of them get 0 visibility and typically won't even notice they've been released

Pretty much this.

Like, if we were still in the PS2 era you know there'd be some kind of Minions game, but instead it's on mobile because it's easier and probably makes more money.

Having said that, I did just buy some weird 3DS Beyblade game because it was cheap enough to push my full purchase into free delivery range, so eh.
>>
>>318093657
Not to mention the audience for those sorts of games are there, lots of people that would have bought a handheld or console in the past just use their phones or tablets these days for all their "vidya" needs.
>>
>>318093414
this right here. I wouldn't be surprised if making them was just some bizarre way of writing off or laundering money for the people involved

I would rank Battle for Bikini Bottom along with these. The only major gripe I have with that game is whoever did Mr. Krabs' voice. It's atrocious.

I ruled out Goldeneye because, though it was great for it's time, it holds up like fucking 7 year old milk

See >>318094816

The load times fucking blew, but I had some fun with it as a platformer, and the levels were pretty cool.

Treasure-hunting Sponge needs to come back, that music is great.
