Nostalgia for something basically clouds your judgement on something. So if you say, played a crappy game in your youth where just playing a game was the bee's knees, going back to it after playing billions of other games you kinda feel it is not all that great, but enjoy it anyway because it reminds ya of THE GOOD OL DAYS.

I guess that is the gag.

Someone likes other m for being an old game with good gameplay, but horrid story pacing and plotting.

There are an assload of games we buy on release nowadays that are objectively pretty shitty, but they're the next Mario game so we can't not get them because of nostalgia we feel for older mario games which, when viewed by our current standards, are also really shitty. This is a game called nostalgia that incorporates a lot of shitty gameplay elements but people play it anyway.[/Joke]
