Recently I went back and started playing Chrono Trigger again, and while I don't think it's improved with age, it's still one of the best gaming experiences I've ever had.
I don't think RPGs get better with age, but I do think they're appreciated a little more if you enjoyed them. I've replayed Dragon Quest VIII and Rogue Galaxy at least twice each now, and being able to get that second playthrough makes me appreciate them a little more than say, Wild Arms 4 or 5 which I'll probably never replay. Jam it back in, in the dark.

There's very little of that "new RPG smell" anymore. Take Xellos' list for example. Tales of the Abyss (which is what, the 5th one on a console?), Wild Arms 5, Suikoden V, Valkyrie Profile 2, Star Ocean 3, Breath of Fire IV and Final Fantasy XII.
Only two games in the original list are actually new IPs, and Ar Tonelico already has a sequel or eight coming out in Japan. There's nowhere I can't reach.
