Why cant the xbox one or series x/s run the original xbox games without Microsoft specifically making them backwards compatible?
In: Technology
The original Xbox ran on a stripped down Windows NT kernel. The game is a program that runs on it. The game knows how to talk to the OS.
To run the same game on an Xbox One or Xbox series X, Microsoft would need to create a software layer so that the game thinks it’s running on an original Xbox.
