As a result of a related Stack Overflow question, I built a package specifically for this purpose, oldr. The package is available here:

https://github.com/duckmayr/oldr

You can install via

devtools::install_github("duckmayr/oldr")

Once the package is installed, you just need to run

oldr::install.compatible.packages("effects")

The function oldr::install.compatible.packages() searches through the CRAN archives to find the newest version of the package that is compatible with your installed version of R.
