    Why would Nintendo do anything as customer friendly as back compatibility? It’s just not who they are.

      Because they’ve done it many times in the past? Wii, WiiU, Gameboy series, DS series all had backwards compatibility.

      Because the GBA never played Gameboy games, and the Wii never played GameCube games, and the Wii U never played Wii games, right?

      Like others have said, but I will repeat:

      • GB->GBC->GBA->DS->DSi->3DS->n3DS
      • GCN->Wii->Wii U

      It’s very much something they have a strong history of doing where it can work.
