Honestly I think the bigger reason is that most games are more suited to a miniseries or full TV show.
Also Use Boll “retired” in 2016, and while he has still done some film work since, he has stopped cranking out bad videogame movies.
Recent stuff like Minecraft, Uncharted, Gran Turismo were “meh” instead of “terrible”. TV shows like Arcane, Cyberpunk Edge Runners, Castlevania, Fallout, and The Last of Us have been pretty well received. Heck, the first season of the Witcher was really good. The Mario movie did well enough that they made a sequel, and are making a Zelda movie.
Not to mention other cross-media franchises. Marvel has been gigantic. D&D has had several videogames and movies over the years of varying quality. Warhammer is getting a TV show. Pokemon has been a gigantic mess of good, bad, and mediocre media of all kinds. Star Wars too.
