6 reasons Star Wars should/shouldn't return to action platformers

Star Wars is a franchise that is very malleable for developing video games. There have been all sorts of games to come out across many different platforms, covering the majority of genres to explore. But one genre that has done very well with the Star Wars franchise is 2D action platformers. Many of the classic Star Wars games from the 8-bit and 16-bit eras were highly praised for the amount of fun they provided for Star Wars fans. But in the years following their release, Star Wars games have explored other types of game designs and genres that are far removed from action platformers. This is something many fans wish would make a return in some form, allowing us to jump and shoot our way through a galaxy far, far away once again.
