This is the case for most of the original NES games.
Comment on 'Friendslop' dominated 2025 by proving time and time again that graphics are overrated

I agree to an extent, but good graphics can’t save a game with bad gameplay.
I bet you’ve never heard “the game isn’t fun but I put hundreds of hours into it because it’s beautiful!”
In contrast, good gameplay can save a game with abysmal graphics.
I’m willing to bet money you’ve heard something around the lines of “it doesn’t look great but I just can’t stop playing!”

Right but that’s not what it says. It says “the pursuit of fancy graphics doesn’t make sense anymore”.
