Is Legacy content/backwards compatibility important for a console's success?

Yeah no, in this case, they had to build a new house based on an old house miles away and had to recreate everything from scratch.

But hey, that's not the first time someone comes up with his opinions over the facts, we even got a guy explaining Smash Wii U wasn't a Wii U exclusive since there was the 3DS version too, and was the same game (despite being not)

There's nothing "factual" about a 2009 game with redone graphics being a new game in 2020. All that's changed is the graphics and the graphics are just the paint job.

The Crash N.Sane and Spyro Reignited trilogies aren't new games, and their graphics were totally redone. New paint don't make a new house.

You do realize a game is not just about graphics, right ?

Cause Demon's Souls and Crash/Spyro/Zelda LA/Tony Hawk have been build up fro scratch, new teams had to recreate the physics, assets, gameplay and other stuff of old games.

Doing a paint job is a remaster, which isn't the case here
