Whether BC is a big deal or not, I'm glad to have it.

The reason I gave away my GameCube and PS2 were because the successors had BC. I gave my Wii away, too but my sister gave it back early this year. I love the feature, especially when it has the option to make older games better.

We've had a lot of variations on bc. Systems had the feature and failed (Wii U). Systems have had the feature and dominated (DS). Some systems didn't have it and were spectacular successes. Some only support bc for digital purchases. No matter what, I'd rather have it than not.

My two pennies.

A feature that allows me to have less boxes near my TV is always great. It convenient and the experiences on the newer hardware can be better. For example, I like being able to capture clips, have faster loading times, get better performance and have increased resolutions while playing OG Xbox and 360 games on my X1X.

A big benefit of PC gaming is the ability to access games from any era. Whether it be old PC games or console/arcade emulators. Anybody who seems to oppose BC or is lukewarm about it, I get the impression it due to their favorite platform lacking it so they downplay it.

I can't think of any other reason why sales is considered.
