I can’t imagine the PS3 will last much longer than this. Truly the end of an era. :(

    So their stuff there’s no excuse.

    Third party stuff they can’t do without contracts.

      I don’t have an Xbox, so I don’t know if they only offer backwards compatibility for first party games? If no and they offer old third party games, then there is no excuse for Nintendo! If Xbox can do it, the biggest player on the console market can do it!

        I don’t know if they do.

        I do know that if they do, they explicitly had contracts in the past, when the games were published structured in a way that gives them permission to do so now. There is no way for Nintendo to do the same. They would have to negotiate new deals and it’s not actually possible to do so for more than a small handful of third party games at absolute best.

        Also, Microsoft is a far bigger company than Nintendo.
