I had a similar experience quite a while ago, when I was active on an Ultima IX board, back when U9 was freshly released. A lot of those kids on that board got interested in the Ultima series history. When I told them that due to the aged graphics and sound effects they probably wouldn't much like the old titles, I was to my surprise greeted with a "so what, the games are great" and "Ultima IV is really cool" a couple of weeks later, once they had managed to pull the games from some abandonware site.
