I mean…yea?

Game development and design has evolved tremendously over the decades since those retro games were made. Systems are also just physically capable of so much more.

This inevitably means that a lot of the small design mistakes of those old titles have long since been rectified in modern titles because we understand now that those aspects weren’t part of what made those games fun — they were just the limitations and scope of knowledge of that era.

This isn’t to say those games are bad, I still play the old classics on my Switch when I have access to them, same with the classic catalogue on PS+, but definitely a lot of them just have modern parallels that do the same thing so much better that it isn’t even worth going back to play them.
