I don't know, but most of my consoles are backward compatible ( ps1, ps2, ps3, wii, wii u, ds, etc.. )

PS1 backwards compatible?  Not bad eh.   

-The Atari 7800 is backward compatible with almost all Atari 2600 games.  Atari 5200 and Sega Genesis have cartridge adapters to provide compatibility with Atari 2600 (Atari CX-55 Cartridge Adapter) and Sega Master System (Power Base Converter) games respectively.

-Most Wii Systems, Wii U.

-Most Nintendo hand helds

-PS2, some PS3s 

-Xbox 360 with some Xbox games.  

 

Quite a few systems missing from this list.

BC is outdated in consoles, I only expect it to make a resurgence in next gen and I mean 9th gen, because the architecture they use are no longer propietary or exotic. Unlike previous gens, the architecture is now PC architecture which is probably the most scaleable so far, and has a large dev focus.
