You can say the 90s but that "tribal" enemy aesthetic is still around in video games today. Look at the most recent Legend of Zelda games, for instance - the enemies wear animal skins and use bone weapons.

That can just as well be "stone age people" tribal though.

In some games they have dreadlocks!

Sure, do you think stone age people didn't have that? Pretty sure that's what they get depicted like a lot.
I'm not saying it isn't potentially racist (Japanese games/anime do have some well known issues with the depiction of black people/foreigners in general) but with tribal people in video games, you can often make just as much as a case for "that's primitive stone-age stuff" as "that's a racist tribal caricature".

Do they have big cartoonish lips and stereotypical "ooga booga" clothing though? Come on. It's not the trope or the aesthetic itself, it's the execution.
