SNES games look a lot better then most ps1/n64 games.

Yeah something like Super Mario World still looks nice today and always will. The 4th gen is when 2D games got refined enough to be really high quality a lot more often which is why the 2D games on the 5th gen consoles like Symphony of the Night hold up better. It's a style of game that was already fairly refined a few years earlier vs a style that was still in its early years. 3D games from that time are basically the equivalent of 2D games on the NES, there are ones that still hold up well but most of them are really outdated visually and gameplay wise compared to games from today.
