Do you like classics?

I love classics, graphics dont make the game, its the fun factor.

I have more fun playing Super Mario Bros. then Super Mario Galaxy.

 

That's why I used GBA to compare, but even that is flawed.

Thank you for your very constructive response.

 

"Games like LTTP, Chrono Trigger , Super Metroid or SMW still make the lists of best games of all times ahead of any recent games, even though the lists are remade every year.Does that say something?
What you're doing is confusing technical advancements with a better gaming experience, which is really a state of mind.These classics have something in them which stimulates people(at least me) in a way the new games very rarely do. Of course it would be foolish to say that all new games are uninspired or lacking,but for me the classics will always have their own appeal."

 

What I wonder is if people feel that these games are truly the best by today's standard. Those list tell nothing (well, at least not a lot) about that, as it is heavily nostalgia lists.

I understand that people like them, and I like some. Honestly, I feel GBA has the perhaps best library of any console, but still none of those have gone down in history as top notch games. That is the reason I tried to go back and play the good old awesome games, as I started to feel the 2D charm. Unfortunately, that wasn't there for me with the SNES. So what I'm partially wondering is what makes them so good.
