Well, given that the game industry is now a multi-million dollar business with a lot of fishy practices that lead to Call of Duty and Assassin's Creed being shoved down your throat, and the fact that these games consistently pull Iron Man numbers, businesses would rather stick to what works as opposed to try new things.
Also, the casual audience who enjoyed Mario etc. has grown up, and the marketing of CoD and AC etc. is tailored more to an adult taste, while the developers responsible for the sagely creativity of the past are now developing what's considered "kid stuff" to most.
Things are a little different in Japan - CoD and AC don't reign there, it's instead mobile games which appeal to almost everyone with the abundance of smartphones and the attractive price tags for the games they churn out.

Couple that with there being several dozen startups of last generation's children who dreamed of being game developers now finding themselves in an ultra-competitive market that's only concerned with putting out the next Call of Duty or Assassin's Creed, and then getting shafted by numerous game studios to the point where they can find an audience that actually cares on Kickstarter. Also, keep in mind the buyouts of several companies responsible for the "original, great ideas" of the past over time only to be expected to churn out generic trash, and, well

there's your game industry in 2015.


tl;dr years of Madden and CoD killed the gaming industry. It made the gaming industry stale and everyone's too afraid to try things like they did in the 90's, and so



money > creativity
