It's a great feature to have but studies show that it's not a feature that majority of gamers use as when they purchase new gen they tend to just focus on new gen games.

I see lots of articles praising XB1 with bringing back backwards compatibility, but where was the praise when systems like the Wii U had it from the start?

Personally, I think the reason MS added BWC is to compensate the lack of games on the XB1 and to make their 'library' seem larger, where we've been hearing how the PS4 is getting more support and indy/third party exclusives. (IMO)

I hear the "WiiU had BC" comment a lot.  But WiiU has the dubious honor of playing Wii games!  

 

Just kidding.  But did you hear how happy gamers were to find out that SMG2, Punch out, Metroid Trilogy, etc were coming to Wii U for download?  Yeah, I bought all of them again despite owning them for Wii.  The excitement is real.
