I don't quite understand. If it was designed for older hardware, wouldn't it naturally look better on newer hardware?
The only thing you can scale up in most emulated 3D games is the resolution. All other parts of a game remain the same. I'm talking about things like polygons and textures. Just because you increase the resolution of the rendering, an ugly low-res wall texture is still gonna be ugly and low-res.
Wind Waker is made with a very artsy style and scaling it up to high resolutions make it look like it's far from 10years old graphics.
Twilight Princess is built for the same hardware, but it's using a much more realistic approach, and those often require more computing power to look good. (because low polygon counts(jaggy edges) look pretty unrealistic)
Just make a comparison between the two:

I.e: Mike Rogers doesn't think it's rape unless the victim knows (s)he has been raped. Sounds legit.

Pfft, compare Wind Waker instead. That is truly amazing considering that the game was made for 10years old hardware.
Sounds kinda dumb to me to make a game fit for 10 years old hardware >.>

Hardware 10years old today. Don't twist the meaning..

Perhaps DuckDuckGo? Not sure if it fits the bill, or if it's too obvious.
Is the list only for Windows-compatible stuff?
