Okay, but what I really meant is a competitor's OS, and an OS that is still successful, not one that is getting obsolete and forgotten, and you're only emulating it because it's your own OS and because you want to maintain backwards compatibility.
This is not like Xbox360 being able to run Xbox-1 games. This is like Xbox360 being able to run PS3 games. Big difference. I don't think Xbox360 would've been successful if they said "Here we have 5 games of our own, and 100 from PS3". I think most people would've still gone with the PS3, if it had that many games at that point compared to the Xbox360, instead of dealing with PS3 emulation for Xbox360 just to get those 5 extra games.
