A deep game challenges the test of time.
Honestly I feel like this entire statement is false.
There are a lot of simple NES games out there without a whole lot of substance to them that are still remembered fondly and replayed repeatedly to this day.
Meanwhile there are a lot of modern games that seem to have a ton of depth and thought to them upon release, that are quickly forgotten about within the following year.
I really don't think that it's depth that is the qualifier for how well a game stands the test of time.
