sounds like what nintendo did with the GC->wii

Could the GC play every game that the Wii had? If NO? then it's not what Nintendo did.

With the current state, New-gen starts, its maybe BC with the previous gen, and the previous-gen gets support for like a year or two. It basically will share the library of the new-gen to the tune of less than 10%.

With this theory of mine, new-gen comes out, and there is 100% forward and backward compatibility across the new console and the old one. For the entirety of the lie of the new console.

Basically, you would only "need/have to" buy a new console every other gen. Because if you buy a console you are guaranteed support for at least two gens vs one.
