Kane99 Posted December 27, 2021 Share Posted December 27, 2021 Does it seem like we don't see a lot of shows based on cartoon shows these days. Back in the day we'd get a ton of Simpsons games, even had a family guy game. We go some south park games, but I feel like there's a missed opportunity when they could make a risk and morty game, another Simpsons or family guy game. I'd love for an American Dad game. It doesn't have to make sense either. I think even a Bob's Burgers game would be fun. What do you guys think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reality vs Adventure Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 I think the trend in new games is to make it look realistic instead of cartoony to show off graphics especially in the newer systems that came out. People are excited to see the what new consoles have to offer. Once the craze dies down, then there will be more cartoony games again. And I don't know of any new cartoons that are out. Maybe that is lacking as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Family sedan Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 I don't think the new cartoon shows are that iconic anymore. I mean decades from now what of the current crop of cartoons are you going to remember? Carlos X and Boblee 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see how it's going to thrive in games. Family sedan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell, even the new TMNT shows and games have bombed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can remember one of my favorite cartoons then called Samurai Jack. Family sedan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blackangel Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 Because the vast majority of cartoons these days suck. Some of the more adult oriented cartoons have had games. Family Guy, South Park, The Simpsons, etc. And some of the children's cartoons have games. The only one that comes to mind at the moment is Spongebob. If we still had the same cartoons that we had in the 80's we would have a lot more cartoon based games. When was the last time there was a TMNT game? SNES I believe. That should be your prime example. Family sedan and Boblee 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin11 Posted December 29, 2021 Share Posted December 29, 2021 It's been a while I put my eyes on the TV screen to watch cartoons, let alone play cartoon games. It's devs are simply moving up with an improved AI image quality of the characters to look more realistic and not cartoons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Family sedan Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 Another thing is that in the U.S. we used to have a tradition of Saturday morning cartoons every weekend and it used to be a big deal. Even Sunday morning had cartoons, now those are a thing of the past. I wonder why some traditions have to end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really a big fan of cartoons but The Simpsons basically had my turning towards liking them a bit more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aside from other cartoons, I'd like to see a Black Dynamite game based on the cartoon show. The last TMNT game came out fairly recently. I think for the 360. SpongeBob has had a few games already too. I think one fairly recently, this or last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empire Posted December 30, 2021 Share Posted December 30, 2021 It's mainly cause cartoon based games turned out terrible alot of them and most kids now are into games such as cod gta and even fortnite that's why there's less cartoon based games because there not as big selling as they were back in the ps2 days and most of them turned out terrible anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boblee Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 There was this cartoon back in the days called Samurai Jack, it was a very interesting cartoon that could make a good video game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorpion Posted December 5 Share Posted December 5 I totally agree! There’s so much potential for fun games based on these shows. A Rick and Morty game would be awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
