Allow world transfer from Last Gen Legacy console editions to Bedrock

As you know, to transfer a world from Minecraft on Wii U or Xbox 360, you must first transfer these worlds to the original Legacy Console versions of Minecraft on Xbox One or Nintendo Switch, but a problem arises when you realize that these versions are no longer available for sale or download. Though I have the legacy console version of Minecraft on Nintendo Switch and was able to transfer my Wii U worlds to Bedrock, I am unable to transfer my Xbox 360 worlds to Bedrock because by the time I got an Xbox One, the legacy console edition was no longer available for purchase.

I have a proposal to fix this problem, allow straight transfer from Xbox 360, PS3, PS Vita, and Wii U editions to Bedrock, this can either be accomplished through a separate Minecraft transfer app or an in game option like the one that allows you to transfer worlds from current gen legacy console editions to Bedrock. 

In the end, I feel like people should have the ability to easily transfer worlds, without being gatekept by a version of Minecraft that is no longer accessible to people

    I would love to be able to easily transfer old worlds into new saves on newer consoles again, like in the past with legacy edition transfers.

    It's been 3 years since legacy was unsupported and there still is no official way to do this.
    There are 3rd party ways of doing it but most leave chests and other storage blocks empty with others that claim to transfer everything properly for a hefty price.
    It's just like Minecraft/Mojang don't care about those who currently can't do this!

    Totally. There are lots of cool tools and stuff that Mojang could create. It seems to me that they may feel that it is: "too much work". Like Bedrock Java cross compatibility?

    Hack your wii u or whatever get your save files off it and then ask Chat gpt to rebuild it to a bedrock mcpack sadly you cannot move this to switch but you can play it on bedrock but most of the time this does not work

    This was an issue for me when I did not have Minecraft: Xbox One Edition, but did have 360 and Bedrock Editions for Xbox. This feature should definately be added.
