This begs the question which goes back to my original statement. Once in a player’s game library, the titles can be downloaded and played on the Xbox One and Series X/S. Players who try to search for the games via the Microsoft Store on an Xbox One, Series X, and Series S console will see that it’s “not available for purchase.” However, going to the Xbox 360 marketplace via the console or the website will allow the player to not only buy the games but will also appear in their game library. Daytona USA and Jet Set Radio are two examples. However, not every game backward compatible with the Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S is available on the Xbox One marketplace. This practice lasted until late 2021, with Microsoft citing licensing, legal, and financing constraints as the reason to cease operations. Since early in the Xbox One’s lifespan, several games from the Xbox 360’s library were made available via backward compatibility.

If you’re like me you’d be confused with the wording of that statement. What a cool idea someone came up with, and my kids constantly ask to go back.Available as: Digital (Not for much longer.)Ī few days ago, Microsoft announced that it would remove several games from the Xbox 360 marketplace, including Daytona USA and Jet Set Radio on February 7th, 2023. My 19 and 16 year olds had a great time, and I always enjoy seeing 80s throwbacks personally.who doesn't love Galaga?! This place is located back over the bridge off the beach, but it's well worth the trip, especially if you need a break from the sun or something to fill a rainy day at the beach. The price is a shock at first, but you can stay all day, and you have come and go access as long as you keep your wristband on. For one price you can read about the history of these games if you're interested or you can just play from some of the most awesome video game consoles and pinball machines of all times. We stumbled upon this place online and I'm so glad we did, my kids absolutely LOVED it! It's truly a museum with every game you could imagine, but it's a HANDS ON MUSEUM. We go to Daytona a lot because it's one of our favorite local beaches, but the teens always get bored so we were looking for other things to do.
