A general question: What is more important to you: New large exclusive games ("AAA games") or backward compatibility?

If you have to decide, what do you choose? One thing. And vote, if you like.

Here are my thoughts/opinion: I personally love games with attention to detail - with great gameplay, a nice story and interesting characters. These games mean a lot of effort for the developers. But there are developers who want to make the players happy. Small games are also okay, but I like the big games ("AAA Games"). Backward compatibility of games - It's a feature & that is okay, but I'm not interested because I keep all my (old) consoles as gamers. I can always play the old games. It is important to me that developers are producing new great games :) And what do you think ? Let's see what you think so, wish you a great (E3-)week.

a new AAA game to me. not games, just game. id rather have Horizon or Uncharted than have BC. because i already played the games i have on my older platform.

sure BC is nice to have, and its better than no BC. but having new content is always better than just replaying the old ones you already played

BC is neat, but eventually you want to play new games.

If I had a choice? I'd rather BC :o.

Of course I buy a new console primarily to play new games, but they don't necessarily have to be AAA.
Also the importance of backwards compatibility depends on the quality of your retro library, there are some games I'd like to be able to play anytime. Also BC gives you an opportunity to play a game you may have missed some year later. In any case it's a great feature that any console ideally should have.

New games are the most important obviously, but I'd choose both of course, I always play classic games on all consoles that give me that possibility. Right now im playing the first 3 DKC of snes on my WiiU.

Both for the best value

Such a shoe horned question, lmao.

If you value BC that much, why bother getting the new console?

Depends on if the new AAA game is good. BUt in most cases new AAA games
