The more pixels you cram into a given sensor area, all else equal,

But is the digital noise 'random' like the graininess of film or
is it arranged symmetrically in nice convenient little square clumps so
it can become visible at higher magnifications?
In most DSLR cameras the noise, at high ISO, is dominated by ... you guessed it
...
1/f noise in the amplifiers. This makes the images look "streaky". It's ugly.
