Microsoft is repackaging backwards compatible Xbox 360 games in Xbox One cases

xbox360xboxone-backwardscompatibleMore and more Xbox 360 games are added to the Xbox One Backwards Compatibility list every week, and now Microsoft has figured out a way to extend the retail life of some of their previous console’s biggest hits.

Recently spotted by NeoGAF user “Xyrmellon,” Xbox 360 games that are also playable on the Xbox One are now being sold in Xbox One cases with a banner that reads “Plays On Xbox One & Xbox 360.”

It’s an ingenious bit of marketing and I hope more Xbox 360 games from yesteryear stay in print this way.
