I too would love this, I still have my old disks, which is the whole collection, but like others I can't play it on my new PC, even when I had Windows 8 it wouldn't even play The Sims 2 disks!
Luckily I was lucky enough to get the free Sims 2 download less then a year ago, from a very nice lady from EA customer service, who at the time was helping me with an issue with Origin, and I just happened to decide to ask about it, and she added it to my Origin, after I gave her the code off my basegame case!
But I have been seeing a lot of lets play videos on YouTube that has got me wanting to play the game, so I would love to get the chance to even just buy it from Origin!
The fact is Origin has in the passed given away older games, ones just as old as The Sims 1, like Theme Hospital, which was released in 1997, so much older then The Sims 1, and worse Wing Commander III: Heart of the Tiger, which came out in 1995! I have these two which is why I bring them up, though I have a bunch of other ones too, all older out of date games!
So yes they could release The Sims 1 as a download, and I don't need it to be free, $20, actually I admit I would probably give them even $30 for it, since it is The Sims! I mean I don't even play anything but The Sims games, unless I count Mahjong or Solitaire on my phone and Kindle,lol!
So for me the chance to have the one that started it all to play whenever I want would be fantastic!
