Not sure it retcons the first film, the animated intro sequence presents the origins story in a way that contradicts how it was shown in the first film. The origin is still Johnny Blaze making a deal with the devil to save his dying dad for selfish reasons and his dad still died turning him into Ghost Rider. Also, there's an entire bit explaining why Mephisto is played by a different actor in the second film.
