A Sony patent suggests older PS1, PS2, and PS3 games could be backwards compatible via the cloud.

This would just be streaming like all the other cloud stuff. Why are they calling it “backwards compatable”?
I just wanna play Legend of Dragoon & Chrono Cross 
Hang on though. Wasn't stans just talmbout why get a new console to play old games not too long ago? Something is fishy around here...
MS cut them the best deal over other cloud hosting companies. Microsoft trying to overtake AWS, business not personal.
Probably using the disc for validation if you already own the game I hope.
Problem is the all digital ps5 in that scenario.
Still don’t make sense as they would just be running an emulator in the cloud. Why not just run it locally?

Vita remote play been smooth for me since 2014.They’re gonna need to step up their infrastructure if this is their answer to backwards compatibility. I’ve streamed games through PSNow and PS Remote Play and it’s super spotty compared to stadia without even hitting the highest resolutions. That being said, It does make sense and would be very viable if executed properly
