Was this the post you were thinking of about backwards compatibility?

Back in my day we didn't expect backwards compatibility. If your SNES cartridge fit in your N64 you were doing something wrong.

If so, I didn't say anything about the hard drive slowing so idk where you got that from.

As far as it being, "2013, why cant we have backwards compatibility?!", the fact is that we can, but it would require additional hardware in the console. There are various reasons why they wouldn't add it in. For example, the console's size/airflow needs and, of course, money. It's well known that Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo all sell their consoles at a loss and make their profits through their shares of each game sale. The 360, for example, was estimated to have been sold at a $126 loss per console. I'm sure they'll be selling the X1 at a similar loss already, so I'm not surprised they weren't willing to foot the bill of another $50-$100 per console for backwards compatibility hardware.
