You don’t need to go back.

That game falls firmly into the “formative/great for its time” category.

Your memory of it is better than how you’d react to it today, I assure you.

I replayed it a month ago and still liked it.

Yeah, agreed. This is a very spicy take, but Mario Kart 64 also disappointed me after going back to it as an adult. It just... doesn't play well compared to the newer titles, especially with how good the gameplay in 8 is. It was amazing for its time, but things have absolutely improved since then.
