I thought consoles had their long winded certification processes? Do they not catch these types of games there?

    Console certifications only check that a game is functional and meets platform requirements (like achievements, peripheral support, accessibility).

    They’re there to ensure a game works and won’t brick any systems or steal bank details etc. They don’t typically check that a game is ‘good’, since it’s so subjective.
