With planets similar to earth, would an older planet have more islands and more continents compared to a newer one?

I watched a video of Pangea forming into the current layout of the world. Islands began to pop up more and more and as Pangea broke the separate continents appeared. Would the same thing happen to a planet similar to earth? Also, as earth ages, will/is it likely the continents and current land masses will continue to separate into smaller parts?

That video only showed part of the story. Pangea is only the most recent supercontinent. Before that there were several land masses, and before that another supercontinent. In the future the continents will join back into a supercontinent again.
