backwards compatible games
Best Buy customers often prefer the following products when searching for backwards compatible games.
For the most part, video games are a forward-looking business. Every year sees the release of new titles that look better than the last—and run on the latest consoles. But there's always been an element of nostalgia in gaming, and some players would rather play old favorites than wait for a remastered version to come out. Thankfully, a number of video game developers have created ways to make their older titles playable on newer consoles.
