  • Did DS games stay on n3DS? I seem to think they did, and that was technically a somewhat significant shift in hardware.

    Wii to Wii U was different iirc, but it’s been a while.

    Wii U to Switch for sure did not have any.

    GB games could be played on GBA, GBA games could be played on DS up to DSi (I think) and DS games all work on NDS. So it seems like Nintendo gives about 1 generation of backwards compatibility.

    This wasn’t possible with the GameCube and N64, but I know the GC and N64 could play GBA and GB games respectively.

    Nintendo is generally pretty good with backwards compatibility in my eyes. Better than Sony was with the PS3 for sure.
