OoT and MM have aged reasonably well in that the core mechanics of lock-on based combat haven't changed all that much since then, but exclusively controlling the camera with the Z button is definitely pretty dated and I'm definitely glad for the right stick in BotW/TotK, and a little more complexity in attack/defense options is nice. Starfox 64, however, is exactly as fun today as it was in 1997, simply because the conventions for rail shooters haven't particularly evolved since then. --- This is my signature.
