BC is convenient for the first couple months when the new console is out, after that I never touch it again.

Come to think of it, BC is probably bad for sales of the current systems. Many people will be selling their old systems since they can play all the games on the new system. I never sell my old hardware. It's always nice to boot up the ps3 again and 'find' all the stuff I collected on there.

BC only gets more relevant since there is nothing much to be excited about for launch games :/

I still use the BC on my Wii U to this day to play Wii games, especially Super Smash Bros Brawl, which almost never wanted to run on my Wii but never made a fuss on my Wii U. Also, I kept my Gamecube at the time due to the Game Boy Player, and use it sometimes to play the two Fire Emblem (Sacred Stones and Shadow Dragon) on the Big Screen. Also used it a lot to play the GBA version of Zelda 2 since my NES was pretty much dead by then, but now with Switch (well, and the Wii, since I bought it there on the VC, too) I don't need to do that anymore to play it.
