Well it's mixture of not caring, but also the small fraction that ring a bell are most likely ones from franchises with frequent enough iterations. There hasn't been a new Medievil game outside of the PSP remake in years and same goes for a good portion of those characters. Doesn't mean they're bad or unmemorable, they just haven't been in action since the PS1, or PS2, or were just from one off games. I can assure you not many individuals would have a clue who Blinx the timesweeper or Voodoo Vince are.
This is also how Nintendo builds its brand power, it keeps reminding people of its IPs through frequent new iterations, with less emphasis on the creation of new IPs but new IP creation isn't necessarily non-existant.
