This is not true. However OP, I'm pretty sure you don't have the knowledge to fix this kind of damage. I suggest to look for an electronics technician that can help you out. Depending on your budget, it might be cheaper to buy a new one than to pay to get it fixed but if it has sentimental value or it's just a dumb TV (nowadays that is a feature IMHO)...

Most things you describe are the side effects of displaying a 640x480 game on a modern LCD. I agree, however, that the default settings make the game look worse because of aspect ratio correction and the default nearest neighbor scaler. Both can be improved by either using an SVGA CRT or a pixel shader.

They died with the transition to 3D and have resurrected and blossomed into a lot of new games and subgenres like with Disco Elysium, the Tell Tale games, The Talos Principle, Life is Strange, Monument Valley, VA-11 Hall-A... even The Stanley Parable is a point and click narrative driven game.
