Hi all!
I watched the first 10 or so episodes of Nadesico when the series was first broadcast, and I suspect that the comic store fellow was a bit confused. Yes, the series does have a tribute to old-style anime series, but it's old-style giant robot series, not Gatchaman.
In Nadesico, there is a fictional old giant robot cartoon called "Gekiganga 3" that is popular among the crew, and they show bits and pieces of this show as the characters are watching it. From what we see of Gekiganga 3, it is very similar in style to Getter Robo. When they show segments from the series, they are done in a retro style that looks similar to the classic Toei giant robot shows. But no, it's not a Gatchaman tribute, though the Gekiganga 3 "theme song" was sung by Isao Sasaki, the man who provided the voice of Joe.
So, unless someone else who watched more of the show than I did tells us otherwise, I wouldn't watch Nadesico in hopes of finding a Gatchaman tribute, since it certainly wasn't there at the beginning of the series!
I hope this helps!
James
