Don't trade in your old consoles! This is why we are getting so many "Definitive Editions." They took backwards compatibility from us.
Never really understood this thinking. Why are we entitled to backwards compatibility? NES to SNES didn't have it. SNES to N64 didn't have it. N64 to GameCube didn't have it.
NES & SNES didn't have digital games & DLC.
Good thing I still own a NES, SNES, N64 and Gamecube. My issue is they didn't release remasters of previous generation games at full price a year or two later.
I remember getting The Legend of Zelda OOT on Gamecube for free as a preorder bonus for Wind Waker. Do you think Naughty Dog would give away TLOU remaster for an Uncharted 4 preorder? How about 343 giving away The Master Chief Collection for a Halo 5 preorder?
We shouldn't feel "entitled" to backwards compatibility. That doesn't mean the reason they took it away from gamers isn't dirty.
