I think after spending many many hours as a youth listening to music played on a synth with a particular character and range of timbres (while playing games) you become inured to it. Music made using that synth just sounds particularly pleasing. I didnt have a nintendo (so these demos dont really have that effect on me) but I did have a C64, so any music made with the sid chip seems to sound better to me than it ought perhaps.

Tangent: I was recently wondering the same about pipe organ music. Its music has a huge effect on me, wonderful sensations that sometimes cover all my body. Never found anything to read about these sensations nor about the impact of exposure to a given kind of music at a young age on how deeply you get to like it.
