Why do 99% of videogames pander to white (especially American) audiences?

Assassinscreed is the best selling new IP this generation and guess what? The main character is Arab! PoP series main character is Iranian.

Altair is only technically Arab. He looks white and you can barely even discern his features with the hood he has on. PoP is a similar case scenario. Also Persia is only technically Iran. Do you really think the PoP series would be as popular if it was called Prince of Iran?

 

No, but now you're confusing the issue. Iran and the West have a very hostile relationship politically. It wouldn't do well because of politics, not because of race, the same way a game in 1988 featuring a Soviet general attacking Western Europe wouldn't have sold well.
