Forums - Microsoft Discussion - What did you get in Microsofts backwards compatibility sale and what do you want in the future?

It's the best backwards compatability of this gen. A shame we will never experience DS/wii-like compatability though.

Nintendo should copy Microsoft and release Gamecube games. My god, imagine Paper Mario:TTYD and the Metroid games on the go.

 

Anyways, to not derail the thread, Microsoft deserves credit for this. It has been executed perfectly.

It would be the first time we would see a strong first party backwards compatibility catalogue without it being streamed. Microsoft has proven that emulation trumps streaming. :)



I missed this sale! Is it over? I'd love to take some of my physical games and make them digital.



Nothing yet but I might buy Far Cry 3 before its over.

Got Earthworm Jim HD, might check back and see if there are any last minute things I'd like.
