That's a bit confused. You're describing technology "aging", that is, changing as time goes on, in a state-of-the-art sense: the evolution of the technology as a whole. What's being discussed up there is whether technology as in specific implementations (a particular game for example) can be argued to "age" that way. That's obviously not the case: what changes is indeed the overall state-of-the-art, which informs consumer preferences, which informs how those older implementations are perceived.

And specifically, it's the "aging like wine" parallel what's being rebuked; even for the meaning for technology that you chose (state-of-the-art), it doesn't really fit at all because that's defined by what's added to it, not by what remains from before.
