OMG Mega Man 2 is literarily unplayable because of the dips to single digit FPS in for example Metal Mans stage; said no one.
OMG F-zero 99 is literarily unplayable because of the dated graphics; said also no one.
Today’s obsession with FPS is ridiculous IMO, but still, I would rate performance over graphical fidelity. But, while it depends on the game, acceptable FPS in most cases is anything above 20 fps. I’m most sensitive in to low FPS in shoot ’em ups, preferably 60 fps (or 50 fps for PAL) but even here slowdowns, when the screen is filled, isn’t the end of the world (more important in this genre than FPS games in my opinion).
But sacrificing performance (to a certain degree) for good game mechanics and good enemy AI is a no brainer.
Actually wasting performance on just pushing pixel count, like 4K, is just a waste.
