Playing a year 2000 game on a conaole from 2006 makes no sense. Of course things aren’t going to like up and the controls will feel like junk, almost like it was just theown together six years later to boost sales or something.

Eh, yes and no. There’s definitely a spectrum of how well a game stands the test of time. Some titles hold up better than others - whether graphically (mostly due to art style), gameplay wise (some stuff was janky or bad even on release) or in any other way.
Besides the more objective, technical aspects there’s also the fact that each person has different gaming experience and expectations to what they play. You can’t drop a blanket statement “old game on new platform will be bad, duh!” and be done with it.
