Interesting discussion here...
Well, if anyone ask me about, I would say that the new games are far more enjoyable than the old ones, but it is normal, it's just the natural evolution of the industry, specially a industry that relies a lot on technology.
The only true exception, in my point of view, goes to SNES. It's incredible how SNES aged so well. I usually turn off my modern devices just to play DKC 1, 2 and 3, Zelda A Link to the Past, Super Mario World, and many other games, and I play again and again and it never fells old or obsolete.
However, I think we can't consider just how the games of these old devices are in comparison to the modern games. We need to consider how was the impact of that device and it's library in your own time and, in that case, problably no other console had such importance as the NES. The Atari 2600 was huge, but it was mainly in the US, and we can't analyse the history of gaming only by the US perception. If Atari 2600 was sucessfull in US, the NES was the first worldwide phenomenon in terms of home console, and I think it's far more important.
But, my vote will go to the SNES, because of fellings.
