We Need More Retro Style/Cartoony Games

But they're all 3rd person action-platformers. They're a similar type of game and I don't see how one simply being from a franchise that hasn't had a game in a while makes it 'retro'. 

 

Even if you do view it that way, just swap retro for cartoony and the point still stands. There are plenty of both cartoony and retro games (arguably too many retro games). So asking for more is silly.

Knack isn't a platformer and neither is R & C. Yooka-Laylee panders to a franchise from the '90s, that's what makes it retro. 

Have you played Knack or Ratchet and Clank? They're both absolutely platformers.

 

Yeah, it panders to that franchise by way of the type of game it is. Which is a third person action platformer.
