Multibillion-dollar tech company: It's just not feasible with the current hardware.
Some guy in a basement: I did it.
But at what cost
It's more "it's just not profitable for us so we won't bother"
In company lingo, "feasible" just means "profitable". Yeah some guy in a basement did it, but it probably wasn't incredibly optimized for the platform. If software doesn't run great on your hardware, then there'd be no reason to market and sell it other than something like convenience. All because people can play Doom Eternal on a Samsung fridge doesn't mean people should or that Samsung should use it as a selling point.

Scott took the time to cook up some lasagna and place it on his Wii U just for a 5 second joke.

I just had a thought. There were probably some kids who never owned GameBoys but instead owned a Super GameBoy and an SNES and thought that was the only way to play GameBoy games.
It said on the box, but then again I doubt they would read it.
That's going to be me in due time:)
Probably very few. The GameBoy was a much larger thing than the SNES, not to mention the Super Gameboy. :)

I find backwards compatibility in some way important to me because I love history and video game history, so playing old things is interesting to me
So then the emulation is for you
Like the dude said just emulate it on your own terms. For a company that’s too expensive in some cases. People bring up ps3 emulators working then shit talk Sony as if the ps4 could run them lmao. Modern PCs still struggle with some ps3 emulated games so no matter what some consoles just can’t go backwards. Plus less than 1% of the user base is gonna be emulating at any given time. It’s a neat feature but to a company it’s just useless. Ps4 and ps5 are pretty similar and have hugely shared fanbase since the games and diminish returns has kicked in there’s no huge graphical or hardware developmental difference like with the ps1-2-3 anymore.
@@georgec9384 Emulation just isn’t the same tho.
Every single time I’ve tried emulation it doesn’t feel good, at all.
The first time I played Super Mario 64 was through an emulator using a Ps4 controller.
I had to bleach my hands afterwards because of that.
Do not get the switch then. No backwards compatability is one of many Ls for the switch.
@@waled7564 Yeah, emulation is often the only way to truly play prior-gen games. Rarely can a new system natively play its last gen games. Going back to more than one gen is basically out of the question. When emulation is necessary it is far better, in most cases, to either play on the original system or use a PC with the horsepower to run the game well.

Being completely honest, i found it super charming to go back into a wii menu to play my wii games, it felt like a blast of the past, even if it took more steps.
My family didn't realise our wii was backwards compatible until I went over to another kid's house and they had the covers open. It was a good day
I never knew it until a few years after I gave away my wii for a wii u
I had like 50 euros on a game shop and most of the new wii games were of that price or even more,, the store employee told my parents that with that money i could buy a gamecube controller and like 3 used gamecube games, i was really happy
Shoot the Gamecube controller ports aren't just there for GC backwards compatibility. Wii games can use them too.
my family didn't realize it until a decade after we got it and I wanted to use my GC controller for MKWii

Here's a small Fun Fact for those who care (No one):
Scott's video on Chibi-Robo! Zip Lash got 1.8 million views, more views than ANY other video Nintendo uploaded about the game, which means he marketed the game better than Nintendo

@@zachatck6567 Well Scott is in it. And he is talking about video games
"it is unbelievably clunky to go on a whole different mode of the system"
That mentality is what made GBA games on 3DS embassador-only, thanks Scott
Honestly, in both cases, I don't understand the issue.
Fortunately that capacity of playing GBA games natively makes a hacked 3ds the perfect handheld for playing all nintendo's handheld catalog
Not really, the homebrew community literally ripped Nintendo's emulator out of the ambassador gba games and figured out how to put arbitrary gba ROMs into it, complete with fancy home metadata and home screen icons
The people who benefit the most from backwards compatibility are the ones who never had the older console to begin with. I just got a PS5 and Series X last year, and both are the first of each console line I've ever owned. Being able to play all these big PS4 and 360 games is a godsend.

What's cool is if you have a scratched disc, if the Xbox One can just barely read it and see what it is, it'll download.
Except it doesn't work with every game
Some games have been delisted digitally unfortunately. So they're only playable through a disc.
To be fair, Microsoft *had* to use emulation for backwards compatibility because the processors used completely different instruction sets, so I really couldn't blame them for that.

11:57 If you open up a Nintendo DS game on a Nintendo 3DS holding down the SELECT button, the screen will scale down to Perfect-Pixel mode however games will look much nicer the size out of the way. Hope that whoever reads this welp it surely helps you out.
EDIT: You can now hold just the SELECT Button.
I never found that to be my preferred way to play DS games, it was worth getting a DSi XL to utilize the full screen ratio imo

Bruh you only need start or select
Does that include newer models or just the original 3DS?
@@starryrose6168 every 3DS has that feature as far as I know
11:24 This was likely to save cost, cos it meant they could just emulate the entire wii with minor changes, mind the Wii may have been basically a overclocked gamecube but the wii u had different hardware so it had to emulate
It isn't emulated: the Wii U just has a Wii inside it. They even share the CPU.

Backwards compatibility was very important to us poor kids, we have a PS2 that we STILL use. it came in handy when our cousins would give us hand-me down games when they got new consoles for Christmas.
Many phones can play ps2 games now.
@@HoangNguyen-ej4wb yeah but a lot of the good ones like San Andreas you have to pay for, I'd rather play it for free since I already have it lol
Ps2 is a really good dvd player and has many good games. I'm waiting for the ps5 to come out to lower ps4's price so I can finally afford a ps3. Ps3 is really hard to emulate and there are many good games that I want to play.
@@HoangNguyen-ej4wb yeah ps3 does have a lot of good games, I wanted one when I was younger because it had backwards compatibility, but my mother said she's rather just save up for the Ps4 since it was new at the time.

I still play my PS2 games. And PS1 games as well. Thank you, backwards compatibility
Scott keeps reiterating, "Backwards compatibility is nice on the back of the box, not so much in gameplay" "Nobody cares about backwards compatibility" "All consoles which have backwards compatibility fails" and I'm like, WHAT!?
Backwards compatibility has got to be, hands down, the best thing ever for consoles. I used and USE it all the time! I am not shitting you, we were a WiiU family. I played on Wii, all of my cousins had one, we didn't. When the WiiU came out, we instantly snagged one up, and I was playing all the best Wii hits along with all the new games. I still contest the WiiU was great. But I also can't tell you how many hours I spent on Wii Sports Resort. Some of my most cherished gaming memories wouldn't exist without backwards compatibility.
Nostalgia aside, it's just amazing to have and NOT frivolous. I played tons, and I mean TONS of DS games on 3DS. Even to this day, I use my PS5 to play PS4 games. I won't accept this slander!
Fully agreed, dude! 😎
I hope that the "switch 2" or whatever is backwards compatible with my switch games. That way I can play Mario 3D All-Stars for years to come instead of keeping fingers crossed that Nintendo would re-release them...
None of what you said refuted him. Sure the wii u had backwards compatibility. Still sold like shit
@@lakitudude7577 None of what *you* said refutes *my* claim. Plus it does. I didn't directly say that backwards-compatible consoles sell well, yet the 3DS and PS5 are titanic examples. My argument is that backwards compatibility is a great selling point and is widely used. Scott claims backwards compatibility is rarely used. I never once even claimed it makes them sell better.
But also, don't go there if you don't know what you're talking about. Scott may also partially wrong about this. I don't know if he despites backwards compatibility being a *reason* consoles sell well or if they sell well at all, yet still. But to reply to you, the WiiU is one of the worst performing mainstream consoles. Meanwhile:
#1 PlayStation 2: >155 Million units sold. All/most units backwards compatible with PS1. An undeniable factor in its success, documented everywhere, not to mention the PS1's preexisting >100 million units.
#2 Nintendo DS: 154 Million units. A lot of units were not backwards compatible, but the Game Boy Advance was so popular (80 million), Nintendo banked on it playing Game Boy Advance games in case it flopped.
#4 Game Boy/GBC: Can't find specific numbers on each model, but arguably the Game Boy was *forwards* compatible with GBC games, lengthening its own lifespan and contributing to the success of GBC games, so it arguably counts at least a little.
You can go down the list to find even more. 7 out of the 10 top selling systems had it, and most, including the No.1, was influential to its success. Backwards Compatibility might not guarantee success, but can bolster a well-known brand ten fold.
Final (anecdotal) point: You assuming backwards compatibility has no correlation with success reeks of privilege. Most can't just buy the new consoles. Often, you sell your old one and games to buy a new one, with around only half the money you put in, ergo you lose all your old games and can only buy very few. Meanwhile, buying a console backwards compatible with your old one makes selling the old one carry no weight, and raising money to get the new one. You assuming it carries no correlation to success makes me think you never had to *make* that choice.
@@Morhamms357 let him cook
@@PotionMaster21Dawg had 5 months to come up with a counterargument and did nothing. I think I gave him enough time to cook.
Backwards compatibility is really nice. I appreciate it when I can still play my old games on an upgraded system. DS and 3DS games are some of my favorites, very glad I can play those all on one system. Still keep a DS Lite around if I want to, say, transfer Pokémon up from the GBA games.
I feel alone in actually genuinely using backwards compatibility. Sometimes I want to catch up on older games in series that are getting new installments.
I use it! I used my 3DS to play DS games before I had a DS Lite, and I got a DS Lite specifically for the GBA backwards compatibility! That and the ability to transfer my currently-hypothetical Pokémon from Emerald to Platinum when I eventually get the former!
I also used my Wii U’s backwards compatibility quite a bit.

Th e best form of backwards compatibility ever will be the Wii and the GameCube.
It's always a weird feeling to me when you have a console just to play one game.
I love Twilight Princess on the Wii U, but it's also the only game I play on Wii U.
Pokemon fans:
I would buy a psp for that reason
okay. the shot at 9:48 is INSANE. im guessing the micro was put on a green background to be chromakeyed into a picture of the cart on the carpet. the effort scott puts into a one second shot is insane.
no i think he just took a photo of the micro on carpet and chromakeyed the cartridge in
I know right? I thought it was real at first and took me a second to realize it
The cartridge is chroma-keyed on. You can tell by the bottom right corner. Still cool shot!
You can just photoshop it, it's a still image
Can someone explain to me what the big deal is? Couldn't he just have taken a picture of the micro and the cartridge?
A part of me kind of believes the only reason Microsoft started doing Backwards Compabtility again is too cover the fact that the Xbox one didn't really have too many worthwhile exclusives at the time .
That’s probably the reason
Honestly a smart move on their part! Both BC and gamepass actually made the console stand out
It was the reason. That and the XBox One never recovered from the 2013 reveal.
That is the reason I play GTA 4 anyway 😂
That’s probably the case and it definitely worked for me. Having the convenience of just popping my 360 disc into the one and installing the game is way better than what Sony was offering, which was charging us to play a PS3 games for weird increments of time. Like you can pay $5 for an hour, $15 for a day, and like $30 for a week of something like that. It was very strange and I hated it. Thank God they updated it to be more like Gamepass.
I think backward compatibility is much more compelling now since, at least, the PS5 plays all PS4 games as good or even much better then the PS4 which increases the live of those games.
The “Wii mode” and GameCube mode on the Wii was there for 2 very important reasons, the first is because the Gecko chip present in the GameCube was also in the wii (kinda) so it had to switch what chip was managing everything. Second, it prevented GameCube game exploits from being used on the Wii.
The comment about getting lasagna on your Wii U reminded me of a friend of mine who's Gamecube wouldn't close properly because he spilled raviolis into it, he used to have to weigh the lid down to keep it closed and I never actually got a straight answer out of him as to how he managed to spill ravioli INTO a Gamecube.
Maybe he used it as a pot or plate? lmao

@Lyra Heartfold True. But if there are official first party emulators for both systems, why didn't Sony take advantage of it?
Yea ps4 is overall weaker then the ps3, that being said it would be possible to play ps3 games on ps4 (because of ps3 games barely using the power of the system) but it would take a bunch of time and resources and it would basically just be porting the games to run on the ps4 and doing that for all the ps3 games isnt cheap and generally not worth it.

This is my most important feature when wanting a console.
i've had nightmares about there not being an end card at the end of a "Scott The Woz" video... and it happened...
ALL I SEE IS BLUE!!!
It’s the SAME END CARD.
It’s just blue
He fixed it!
thank you god for fixing this
Too bad you didn’t talk about the weird region locks on some of these systems. For example the Nintendo DS wasn’t region locked and I was able to play USA imported games on my EU DS. Now the 3DS was region locked, but only for 3DS games. I can still play my imported regular DS games on my EU 3DS... Talk about confusing.
It would be more confusing if it somehow added region locking to original DS games.
Some US Nintendo DS games are region locked, like the Brainstorm Series Treasure Chase.
@@fingrati That's because it's not a normal DS game, it's a DSi enhanced game
That's why you hack the damn thing
Am I alone in thinking this doesn’t sound particularly confusing? “I was able to play my games, now I’m able to play my games.”
Must be more confusing for owners of an NA 3DS. But I don’t know that I’ve ever heard someone complain about it. Does Mario not come out in every region? Zelda? Insert Nintendo evergreen franchise here?
I do actually love backwards compatibility
I think the person who gets the most use out of backwards compatibility is the one that's buying their first console. At least that's what it was for me with the 3ds. I didn't have an old ds to go back to, but half the games I bought were secondhand ds titles anyways.
Last time I was this early, the only virgin tax was for having a Dreamcast
Man. That's early.
Mine was for having a GameCube.
Mine was for breathing
The Virgin Tax is for people who have PS4s, Xbox ones, switches and for people who say PC gaming is superior
Time to see some virgins get pissed off by this
so as someone that has done a lot with the ds I gotta add in that the 3ds family is TECHNICALLY also backwards compatible with the gba (so was the dsi actually but i couldn't access it) because the arm 9 processor of the gba is in the 3ds, since when you launch a ds game the 3ds actually relaunches into a modified ds mode using the actual ds processor, which because the ds had gba support, also has gba support, but the only games that ever used it officially were the 10 ambassador games, while some games have save issues due to the weird way it deals with roms a modded 3ds plays most gba games with no emulation probleme because it's not emulation, it's on the metal gba
Also, there's rom injection programs around the internet. I have a pretty good library of GBA games on my 3DS thanks to that.
I miss my Nintendo 3DS 😢😢😢
But I did ask for a Switch for Christmas, so the Switch and Xbox One S have got me covered
I want nintendo to release more handhelds so the cost of the switch can be smaller so the cost of the new 3ds xl can be smaller so that I can finally afford a new 2ds xl and modded it.
@@HoangNguyen-ej4wb lol, check the official store. Refurbished 3DS and 2DS are actually quite cheap.
@@eloy40x I searched for a 3ds in Vietnam a lot and most of the 3ds I saw are modded. Also what's the normal cost for a refurbished new 2ds xl?
Scott will spend 1000 dollars for an 15 second joke
my Wii is primarily a GameCube to me and that’s why i love it
I WAS ABOUT TO SAY “ISNT IT SCOTT DAY”
It's Scott Day
SCOTT DAYYYY
SCOTT DAY?????
*SCAWT DAE*
SCOTT DAY BABY
"Oh hey this game is backwards compatible!"
"Ok that was fun-" *puts game in my shelf with other games I don't play so it can die*
True
@@maragifalaziongarudyne7406 yare yare
Commodore did the same thing the Wii U did back in '85 with the Commodore 128. It had a "64 mode" where you would type "GO 64" in the command line or hold down the Commdore key at startup and BAM, it's a C64 now.
id love to see scott actually dive imto PC gaming, its a bit to get used to but can u imagine his face when he learns what retro arch is
“Not terrible, not amazing, definitely Microsoft”- So freaking accurate to this day
@@ayeayeayeeee Scott was talking about Xbox’s past when saying that.
"to this day" bro it's been 24 hrs
"There's a virgin tax?"
Oh man, I guess I’m an *alleged* tax evader now.
Always has been.
@@rita-Shi-Mi isn’t that meme dead
@@elvisking1150 not in my heart
Is that a Gex quote?
Backwards Compatibility is a feature everyone wants but nobody uses
Edit: i just realized Scott says this exact quote
11:45 Little Mac is about to get *clobbered* after that dodge
“I’m a man of science, not god”
Also Scott: *top 10 commandments*
And our number 8 spot is brought to you by colts firearms, hmm can't get enough of those colts firearms, thou shalt not kill, and thou can not kill without the use of colts firearms, colts done is again!
wow, thats one of my favoratist of the 10 condements

Scott the Woz has taken another subscription. Alright, time to see what I have in store.
Edit: I like what’s in store!
2022 Edit: 👁👁
only goodness
HUh.... thats incredible
Huh? wow just incredible
Get out of here Mario.
Hope you have some free time for the next few weeks
you have seen backwards compatibility....
now get ready for....
*Forwards compatibility*
1:51 and look at him now.
Major companies: Backwards compatibility is hard to do tho!
Emulation teams: Reverse engineering software they know nothing about to make games playable on a completely different platform with near infinite possible combinations of hardware and software differences working off of donations and volunteer work then releasing it for free.
“Pick a core, any core.”
(Picks one)
“You have chosen... poorly.”
I don't think people realize that if they made more consoles backwards compatible how much it would increase cost. Emulation team takes countless hours and typically years before quality emulation starts to come about because how complex emulation is to develop. I'm a Software Dev/Security Analyst, the amount of time and effort it takes to reverse engineer something is absolutely staggering and most of the time, just isn't worth the effort. That same concept applies to major companies because they have to pay devs or buy licensing to third party emulators. Either way it would always increase the cost of the console so most opt out of wasting that time.
At some point, I mean, just re-release the console. Yeah, I know, piracy blah blah. It’s not like people don’t do that already on PC, if they’re so inclined. A new SKU of PS3 might not sell, since everything of note on that system is on newer hardware, but a reissue of the PS2 Slim could be cheap and a multi-million unit shifter.
@@xWiZ3 not to mention the fact that
A) As Scott mentioned nobody actually cares and I believe Sony and Microsoft have numbers supporting this
B) Legal side, companies are more at risk by selling it in a product! Free emulators usually have a lot of bugs, might not handle a lot of games and can be known to crash hardware etc... but it doesn't matter with those because they aren't a bought product and so dont have to work. A feature on console by law has to work and work well in a way a consumer can use without risk. Ofcourse it can have limited support but the support it has must pass quality control tests.
Exact reason why we couldn't purchase game boy advance games on the 3ds
Wait, if Scott evades, then how is he paying a virgin tax?
@Brendan Milburn Couldn't the IRS just track him through his virgin tax bills that are included in his electric bill? I'd imagine that his address would be on file.
@@four-en-tee he clearly lives on a different plane of existence between worlds
He’s just built different
0:04 This one's your primary Wii U, the one beneath is your secondary, the other two are Japanese and European ones!
Backwards compatibility was a godsend. I never owned a GameCube, so the original Wii's backwards compatibility with the GameCube gave me access to the GameCube library.
