honestly speaking Dark Souls/Demons' Souls doesn't deserve that "catering to old games" moniker. Back in the day controsl were so precise that if you slipped up by a fraction of a second then you were screwed. In Dark Souls, there are quite a few fail safes and panic button spells (cough WotG cough) and most of the time mistakes aren't fatal. Demon's Souls might have been somewhat harder initially but still not THAT bad as long as you take your time and play cautiously (something which wasn't possible in old Gameboy and NES games).
