What does being old have to do with anything? Most good 2D action games came out on the NES/SNES/Megadrive, consoles released over 20 years ago. After that we got 3D games which is fine but since the popular indie games are platformers I thought I'd compare them to the pinnacle of the genre.
Super Mario World > Super Meat Boy, Braid and Limbo put together.
