It's critically important; in fact the BC for Xbox One didn't go nearly far enough. Titles like Namco Museum Remixed for Xbox 360 and Namco Museum 50th Anniversary, Daisenryaku VII: Modern Military Tactics, and TimeSplitters 2 were all left out of the mix this time around. The original Xbox in particular was very poorly represented. The remaining titles in both catalogs need to be added ASAP.
Microsoft made a point of promising full backwards compatibility in all future consoles, so the very next generation is absolutely NOT the time to hope gamers forgot about that promise.
