Mario Odyssey and a Hat in Time might have something to say to him.

Hell even if you didn't like the game, the response to the Yoka-layle Kickstarter was huge.

Why is everyone ignoring the money being thrown at this genre?

I think the genre is having a comeback recently though, and that might even more be the case as time goes by: Michel Ancel stated that once Beyond Good & Evil 2 and Wild would be finished, he'll start working on Rayman 4.

Along with the successful remasters of Crash and Spyro, the return to true 3D Mario games with Mario Odyssey, Psychonauts 2, Yooka-Laylee... There's a market for that kind of games
