Wrong. Splatoon is currently finding success among adult gamers despite not existing during their childhood and hence having no nostalgia attached.

Have you ever played splatoon? The characters all look like Disney characters and they use squirt guns. You do understand that is 99% of current adults childhoods right? Just because the game wasn't around when they were kids doesn't mean it doesn't appeal to their nostalgia..

Nostalgia is not required for adults to enjoy cartoony games. There is no switch in the brain that makes polite language and vibrant colours become unappealing once someone turns 18. To seek validation through M-rated content is the hallmark of emotional immaturity, not adulthood.
