Style > Graphical fidelity If a game has good style and design, it's amazing how well it can hold up.

Absolutely agreed. What are your favorite stylized games?

I'm not the person you asked, but Katamari Damacy had a unique looks that still holds up perfectly, the only improvement to be made is using higher def textures for the later games and remasters.

I think Windwaker still looks fantastic, and Windwaker HD looks as good as any recent release.

Also, Hades is a more recent game with very stylized graphics that look absolutely stunning.

I'm not the one asked, but the ones I can think of top of my head are Killer7, which had pretty cool gradient shaders and Borderlands drawn style.

It definitely caters to the OG gamers. Really respects GoldenEye 007.

Okami and Wind Waker are the first that come to mind. Both have aged beautifully.
