It certainly used to be standard for the Atari 2600, NES, Sega Genesis, etc...

 

Dat 60fps! Such smoothness! Very wow!

In all seriousness, you can't compare a 2D sprite-based game where sprites move around the screen and the screen scrolls at 60fps with a 3D polygon-based game where everything is animated at 60fps.

Why not? Framerate affects responsiveness, whether 2D or 3D.
