Either open source it, lead an effort to create a way for everything to be emulateable involving the players/fans/supporters in it or port everything for another platform.
and don’t even think about charge a single cent again; it’s your part planning to deprive people from the store.
Microsoft should make all of their Microsoft studio games available that they no longer want to host, but they can’t force other studios to do the same anymore than Valve can force studios to do a sale/give away games on steam.
Legally they can’t do it, but we need a legal solution for the quick obsolescence of digital media. Digital media can’t be reasonably expected to last “120 years from the date of creation” like books can. By then not only servers are sure to be down, but every single XBox 360 will have turned into piles of rust. Even movies struggle to last this long.
The key thing is, their license model and walled garden policies are what created the problem. Wringing their hands when something they knew would happen happens isn’t admirable.
Oh no doubt. Believe me I have no sympathy for M$. I’m just reiterating the fact that it’s not as simple as it sounds, even if it’s because of their own decisions lol

They way it was written passed me the impression the titles were all MS proprietary.

The list of backwards compatible 360 games is pretty lengthy but it is not 100% covered

I doubt they have the sources for the games they distribute
