The jump from Famicom to 256 color to 32 bit true color to 64 bit really was noticeable
Not only did the games change from 2d to 3d but everything else from sound design to level design changed along with it.
Leaps and bounds of improvement every few years will never be experienced by zoomers and gen aspergers. The only thing you'll experience is change in monetary schemes. You fucking missed the golden age of video games.
Not all games back then were smash hits but the smash hits have stuck until today. Compared to "financial success" games of now where it made lots of money but is immediately forgotten because it's old and busted one year later.
