Why do zoomers like them so much?

Gex's games are actually pretty solid, especially the first one.
Bubsy's games are all largely pretty bad but the fact that Atari keeps shipping him out to random indie devs gives him a sort of underdog charm.

irony
same reason Morbius got a re-release and Croc got a remaster, they were trying to grab those fistfuls of ironydollars but it turns out ironybux isn't an actual currency and thus has no dollar value

Three Bubsy threads on /v/ today. One about to reach bump limit. What a time to be alive

Underdog charm as this anon said.


They also have a funny cartoony factor that others are missing.

As a 36 year old boomer who grew up playing Bubsy on SNES and had a love/hate relationship with it, this shit is surreal

Zoomers love being contrarian because they are desperate to be unique/against the grain

Lack of identify.
Considering how the dead and soulless the modern industry is, zoomers often try to forcefully like characters/games overlooked by millennials, even when those are shit, in an attempt to create a false nostalgic identity and a sense of place in the grand scheme of things.

This is a weird ship. Is it just because they are mascots?

they think generic tranimal mascot platformers are a relic of the soulful past or something

Mascot animal platforms were always good. I loved Gex and Bubsy growing up

It's more that they don't hate them like Millennials do. They don't share the "traumatic experience" of being gifted a dogshit Bubsy game for Christmas and have that event define their view of the character. To them, it's just a furry mascot infamous for being attached to awful games, which, ironically, makes him more interesting.

Say Gex is a clever anagram for homosexual intercorse and Bubsy just awesome he can fly without a pilot's license

Probably because they never played Jazz Jackrabbit 2, the real best old mascot that failed

The characters ironically have more authenticity than what zoomers are used to, but at the time the characters came out, they were perceived as "hey fellow kids" level

Case in point the character you posted. Evangelion sucks balls but zoomers pretend to like it

Fewer of you people exist with every passing year and I can't wait until people stop pretending it was ever good to begin with

We don't? We didn't grow up with em and those who do are the minority. Though it's oddly funny how bubsy is back again.
