Microsoft "Going Retro"

I just saw this post on Tech News World and thought I'd share. Apparently these older games are doing very well on the service:

Greg Canessa, a group manager for Xbox Live Arcade, said the downloadable games service has been surprisingly successful for the company.

About 5 million free trial games have been downloaded by Xbox 360 owners, he said, and 21.7 percent of those have been "converted," meaning a person decided to pay for the permanent version.

Hmmm!
