Not that extreme a time gap, but there was a shitty PS2 game in 2007 supposedly based on the first Fievel movie (1986). It had basically nothing to do with the movie and played like a terrible Super Monkey Ball for some reason.

Someone saw a cheap IP floating around and thought they could sell slightly more copies through vague nostalgia. They're probably right too, they're not losing any sale from people who have no idea what the original cartoon was, and they might earn a few from people who recognize it and are curious.

Directly relevant Dan Olsen video.

Also, DDG / Bing has the dumbest fucking results for some words. If you include words like "game" then you get raw SEO garbage targeting keyboard-slapping five-year-olds.
