What's the oldest gen that still looks fine to you graphically?

I tend to go into 2nd/3rd/4th/whatever gen games with a 2nd/3rd/4th/whatever mindset, so my standards adjust accordingly. I confess I have never actually played a first generation system like Pong, but I've played plenty of Atari 2600 and haven't had a problem with the visuals. I also still regularly play SNES, PS1, and N64 without issue. (Excluding instances of poor framerate, but that's still a problem in a lot of current gen games)

What interests me is that 17 people have voted that they find anything below current gen unacceptable. Being hampered in your ability to enjoy the countless great games made prior to 2012 sounds like a terrible burden to me.

I did't play much atari myself other than Pitfall and Pressure Cooker. I'd be curious of what 2n/3rd/4th gen games were appealing to you in the 2nd generation of consoles.

Some of my favourite 2nd gen games are Space Invaders, Asteroids, Breakout, Pitfall, and River Raid.
