It idea is to let the first word go off the end, but any other words need to be wrapped. Doesn't seem to work on the last word for some reason. In that example anyway.

Depends on the games. Most 80's game were terrible quality, they didn't have AAA budgets, those wouldn't land well today. However by the end of the 90's budgets and quality had increased a lot, those games may be better received today.
