But no one cares about Xbox backwards compatibility.  Seriously.  If backwards compatibility was that important, what Microsoft and its acolytes have been preaching all along would have been accurate if the Xbox had outsold the PS4.  But no where close.  Then you have Nintendo's backwards compatibility.  Everyone cares for that.  And if you don't, you don't matter anyway.  Nintendo is a staple, and icon of gaming history.  No one can take that away. You want millions of teenagers to experience the past, you educate them with Nintendo.

Lol I knew I’d see this rather tired excuse...

Well, to you it's "tired," and to you it's an "excuse." But for the rest of us, it's history.  Yeah, I get tired of saying "George Washington was the first president of the United States of America."  Not because I disagree with it or thought it was wrong.  It's established history, and there's no way around it.  We all know it.  At worst, I made a generalization, but it's backed by history.  Backed by facts.  If you want to propagate and sell tickets to the Historical Museum of Xbox, go right ahead.  Nothing wrong with that.  But there is also the Natural Museum of Console Gaming.  Just saying.
