but many of the best games I have played on old systems have been recent homebrew stuff, which have taken advantage of increased knowledge of what makes something playable.
The point I liked of his was not that old games are bad, but that indie games have more of what made them great - the willingness to experiment etc, combined with the increased knowledge of game mechanics that have evolved by people making mistakes in the past.
