the sims 1 patch or update please.
I would like them to patch it for windows 10 or do a updated one on origin, you did a patch for the sims 2 why not for the sims 1?

They probably updated Sims 2 for the following reasons:
There hasn't been the negative PR moves with Sims 4 short of the SP that requires an EP and people not buying a SP isn't as big of an impact as people not buying a base game.
Given how old Sims 1 is, it would likely take more time and money to get it able to run on modern systems than they would get back either from increased goodwill lowering threshold to buy other EA games or from the purchase of the collection itself.
So I wouldn't hold your breath on there ever being a digital version of Sims 1. We're probably more likely to see a bundle of Sims 3 EP's and SP's or a store bundle for Sims 3 at this point than anything with Sims 1.
- They needed some good PR around the Sims series before the launch of Sims 4 due to some bad PR disasters related to Sims 4
- There was very little time and cost needed to get the digital version ready
