Usually smaller scale indie games are the ones doing it, big shot studios feel the need to go ham on graphics. Here's a handful I managed to scrape together from memory and quick searches, but it's easy to find more.

  - Shovel Knight
  - Dust: An Elysian Tail
  - Hotline Miami
  - Don't Starve
  - Spelunky
  - Braid
  - Papers, Please
  - Sunless Sea

There _has_ been quite a few retro-style, pixelated graphics style games to come out of that sector for one reason or another, but ignoring that, the games tend to have a more stylized feel to them. Limited fidelity means the games need to more creative, but I think that tends to just come with works of passion from smaller studios.
