Any game that can be beaten with a tight system is fucked because waiting for hands is a non-issue if you 8-table. Any game that can be beaten by a system is fucked because people will run that system on as many tables as they can at once, but you might do ok if you can level the system. SnGs are already pretty much fucked because they reward the wrong behavior and the rake doesn't scale down as fast as it does in cash games.

When the legal situation in the US gets unfucked the games will get better for a while. If I was planning on making poker a part of my life for many years to come, I would build a roll to play big live games (40/80+ limit, 10/20+NL (depending on action and blinds, it's hard to map the two)) because those will be good forever. People still suck at poker and have even worse control over their emotions/bodies. When good players aren't eating up 4, 8 or 12 tables you get to see a lot more people with more money than judgement.

Anyway, if anything has a chance of holding up through all of the bots and such it's NLHE.
