    Xbox One plays a number of 360 games fine.

    Apple used QuickTransit for their PPC apps on Intel migration to great success.

    I guess Sony just didn’t want to pay the emulator tax?

      The xbox one/series consoles run a good number of 360 games dispite the fact that the 360 uses powerPC and the newer consoles are x86.

      Sony is out here getting shown up by rpcs3 having about 70℅ of their listed games working perfectly fine by hobbyists reverse engineering the ps3.

      Apple did the same again with their ARM migration and in my experience it worked great. I believe Microsoft also has a solution for running x86 software on ARM.
