Yeah, I know. Maybe the question should be worded a bit differently, though.

Also, there's a nostalgia factor to consider. Would your favorite PS1 games really hold up today if you had to play them?

Let me answer that.

Played ff7 again this year(still the greatest game of all time.

Plays diablo1 a lot., still a incredible game.

Played breath of fire 3 last year again, still one of the greatest jrpgs ever.

Played and buiten suikoden last week, incredible game.

Not only do a lot of ps1 games hold up, they are a LOT better then most crap nowadays.

even thou it's just my opinion ofcourse.

Still play kings field a lot(2)

Really liked wild arms last year.

You have a preference for RPG's, so the limitations don't bother you as much.

An argument can be made for PS1 games holding up better than the more advanced N64. PS1 was RPG heaven، standard RPG's weren't affected by the lack of a 2nd analog stick like platformers were, and less affected by the primitive 3D graphics. Those psudeo 3D RPG's still look cool and unique today, as do games with pre-rendered backgrounds and fixed cameras like Resident Evil. The hardware limitations often forced developers to be creative.
