I fall into the same category. I, like many of us, still like sidescroll style games. I was amazed at the graphics of a game like Mario World or Donkey Kong because of the illusion of 3 dimensions. But, I'll never buy a game for the graphics.
There was an old game called NFL QB club '98 for the N64 that had incredible graphics for a game in its time, but the gameplay was slow, cumbersome, and jumpy, and the controls weren't logical. I wouldn't buy something like that. Give me Mario any day.
