There aren't many games that do not promote physical harm to imaginary entities. Even Minecraft does this, and that's a healthy game where the main focus is not even on killing, it's more on the building side.
Even something like Factorio involves violence against "animals" (whatever those aliens are).
Mario would be banned.
This leaves Tetris I guess and puzzle games in general. Frogger is also too violent as it involves harm to an animal by motor vehicles. Pacman involves violence.
Should movies be banned too? There's a lot of gratuitous violence in them.
Much like movies, most games are about some sort of conflict. Sometimes this conflict is violent, sometimes it isn't.
Also how does leaving people with no outlets to blow off steam helps them behave in real life?
The 'video game scene' is extremely creative already, if you just move away from mainstream publishers.
