With a few exceptions (NES games' controls), I think the concept of "aging badly" is mostly bullshit.
When people say X aged badly, 99% of the time they're either talking about a specific word in a work with thousands of words, or something that was already shit when it came out.
Star Trek TOS' Turnabout Intruder did not "age badly". It was a piece of shit episode when it came out. It is no better or worse.
