Funny how the original BC announcement sounded like almost every game should work just like that, and the exceptions would be somewhat are or up to the publishers. Now it's starting to seem like most games not being playable on Xbox One and instead only certain games getting BC. Or maybe I just misunderstood the original announcement. Either way, this is a slightly disappointing way to go at it.

I see it as pretty good, actually. Not only do you get people excited the first time thinking all their xb360 games will work on xb1, but you have websites posting articles about companies merely thinking about making certain games BC compatible. MS couldn't have done a better job even if they'd tried. Constant free advertising. Poor Ninty on the other hand, gets no credit.

Anyway, I don't see it as disappointing at all.

Yeah, can't really argue about this being good for MS. They've really managed to pull this off very well, even if the BC may not be as good as I originally thought.
