This is old news but the thing I remember was that in 2014 after towerfall had come out everywhere every single platform holder was like "never speak to me about local multiplayer ever again" wrt exclusivity negotiations, I get the impression a lot of people pivoted hard into that genre around that time and absolutely train wrecked in terms of sales

Hard to say if that's still the case this many years later but I think it definitely bred a lot of long-term caution among purse-holders
