I'm familiar with SimCity and Raymond Chen. So familiar to know that SimCity was one of the top-selling Windows (not DOS) games. So while you and I and everyone loved SimCity, Microsoft had the economic motivation to make it work. They also certainly put more effort into obscure business software nobody remembers.

Per wiki, they released "SimCity Deluxe CD-ROM" for Windows 95, so the game was obviously still selling well even then.
