As much as standard AA,AAA batteries are nice and common. The issue is that they are not that energy dense. So for a 5000MaH battery you would need a larger space if it where AA's than if it's a nice and flat LiPo pack.
Also our modern devices use pretty specialized charging/power needs which require custom batteries.
Can't fast charge an AA with 120W's of power.
Though I remeber the days a low battery on my gameboy didn't have to mean finding a cable but just plopping some fresh AA's. Felt like reloading irl.
They probably could just make some standard Li-Po packs. Some Li-Ion packs did become de-facto standards (see the Nokia battery), so things like that did happen.
