Indeed, nostalgia is a powerful feeling. But then, I replay Grim Fandango often and it's always a fun treat. It hasn't aged well, but the dialogue is sharp and witty and hilarious, the story is captivating and moving, the puzzles are fun and wacky, and it's enveloped in poetry. Nowadays, there are a lot of indie games that embrace nostalgia and make pixelated games or purposefully bad graphic games. At least some people like that.
