Xbox One backward compatibility a theoretical proposal, Microsoft says
"The power of the cloud brings many possibilities on Xbox One. Albert was speaking theoretically about backwards compatibility as an example of the features the cloud could enable in the future."
In the interview, Penello responded to a question about potential backward compatibility on Xbox One by saying the console was "absolutely" open to that type of connected feature. "There are so many things that the servers can do," he said. "Using our Azure cloud servers, sometimes it's things like voice processing. It could be more complicated things like rendering full games like a Gaikai and delivering it to the box. We just have to figure out how, over time, how much does that cost to deliver, how good is the experience."
Backward compatibility might be a feature on Xbox One in the future, but for now that's a hypothetical scenario. The console itself might also one day be red, cost $50 or cook breakfast for you – theoretically, of course.

It would be a nice feature but then again I wouldn't play old games when new, fun games will come out.

If the Xbox One had backward compatability, I'd probably end up buying it. But, then again I won't be able to play MLB: The Show, so probably not.

If either console or both consoles had backwards compatability it would make them so better consoles but what is the likleyhood that they actually would make them backwards compatible.

they should seriously look into backwards compatibility, especially if so many games are going to be released for 360 before the console is cut off in three years. And I'd love to play some GTA 5 on my xbox one ^.^

Wagering I really hope they do, do this.
So do I. I don't want to feel like all those games were a waste.
