They remove backwards capability to reduce the cost of manufacturing the consoles as well as leaving open the possibility to later sell older games back to us in digital form. It's that simple.


Because it's always more cost effective to re-program a game for a newer console...

Indeed. They are okay with us playing old games if they can repackage it and sell it again.

Because they know that most old games are better than the new ones and they don't want their failure to be exposed.
