The old art feels, in a way, more realistic. One underappreciated aspect of low definition graphics is that your mind can interpolate the visuals, and you feel more immersed. (suspension is disbelief has a positive effect here) When graphics become HD or closer to photorealistic they are starting to trigger an uncanny valley effect. |

Yes, what Scott McCloud calls "closure" in Understanding Comics.
That said, my mind also interpolates the newer version of Melee Island, because it's cartoony and "abstract" enough, and so I also like it.
