I think that with proper settings the SVCD should look as good (or better) than a VCD. A SVCD uses MPEG-2 which understands interlaced video and should handle motion scenes better. The resolution is also better so details in the picture will be preserved. Try "-N 9" and "-K kvcd" (or "-K tmpgenc") and possibly add 'yuvdenoise -S 0 -l 1' to the encoding pipeline and I think your SVCDs will come out looking very nice.
