Most old games are terrible by todays standards.

Totally agree with that. Most PS1 games are hard to play (in visual terms) for me. Even some PS2 disturbs me. But the SNES/Mega Drive games have a charm that aged very well. I think the point is: more realistic games tends to age pretty bad.

Do these games bother you because of how they look in general, or how they look when processed by modern HD TVs and blown on a 1080p screen?

How they look in general. I was playing the first Crash today before work and, even being a cartoony-looking game in a small screen, the visuals bothered me too much. But I still enjoy it. Resident Evil 1, otherwise, became unplayable for me after the excellent remake for Game Cube. A couple of months ago, I've played GTA San Andreas and Bully in the old PS2 of my girlfriend in an old TV and the look of it was just disturbing for me. I'm thinking of buying a PS2 to HDMI to see what I think of these old games with a slightly better look in a HD TV.

Honestly, I still love the visuals of Sonic, Bomberman, Donkey Kong Country and others even in modern HD TVs.
