    License Transfer Problems.

    I want to buy original Xbox games with my Microsoft Store Balance

    They do, but they are still considered Xbox 360 content, and Xbox 360 content purchasing has unusual rules.

    licence transferring

    You can log in on different Xbox 360 with your user. And then you can use download history and download that content again. And you are allowed to use this content on new xbox 360.

    If you have 2 Xbox 360 consoles in home, then before you buy content log in on xbox 360 where you want buy that content and buy it. That way this console users can use that content and you can use it too.

    Other profiles not able to play downloaded full games on same console

    To let someone else use the content license, you must download your Xbox Live profile to their Xbox 360 console. Then, transfer your content licenses to that Xbox 360 console.

    After you transfer your content, other profiles can use the content on that console.
