You probably have a point and it's not something I believe completely. My main problem I think is I have seen nothing new in games for 20 years at least.

Yokoi: When I ask myself why things are like this today, I wonder if it isn’t because we’ve run out of ideas for games. Recent games take the same basic elements from older games, but slap on characters, improve the graphics and processing speed… basically, they make games through a process of ornamentation.
