and of course our obsession with nostalgia plays a role in this too. these companies are so obsessed with wallowing in their glory days like a pig rolling in its own excrement that they refuse to make room for new generations of creators OR consumers. and they want you to wallow with them
Fuck. You're so right, and this infuriates me. Childism is so pervasive in our society!
