Do you ask Sony that when they continue to add ps1,2, and 3 games to PSNOW?
Who are you?
the fact the xbots dont even keep their previous trash can systems, that they bought 3-4 times over their lifespans, due to them being poorly manufactured
but be so gun ho about being able to play them old games on their newer trashboxes
I Got a OG PS3 Backwards Compatible Spiderman original Release, 1 terabyte SSD Soft Mod installed, Equipped with a cooling system silent as a newborn on a momma's titty, 150 PS3 game Library Installed, 50 Ps2 Game Library Installed, and 100 ps1 Game library Installed, Doesn't count my physical Collection
Sony stans
Kind of a weird take. PC emulators don't have to go for full accuracy, Sony would be aiming for that. Which considering how the Cell runs would probably raise the cost of the console. Sure they could port some type of RCPS3 software joint to it but it's not what would be expected from a company that owns the architecture.
It’s gonna be 2040 and people still want to play there Xbox 1 games on thereBackwards compatibility isnt a next-gen feature . Want to play a ps4 or ps3 game, buy a ps4 or ps3.

No emulator is perfect. Some inaccuracies would be expected. Again random people on the internet have a very respectable working emulator that you don’t need a top of the line computer to use. Sony could do it if they wanted, and no it wouldn’t raise the cost of the console.
What the fukk does that have to do with how PS Now works now?
How do you know this
RCPS3 is open source and have people able to comment to its development at their leisure. Generally with no development costs. You can't account for that cost in a console. Not every game works on RCPS3 and those that do sometimes have glitch guides that are long to read. Microsoft has the advantage here that all of their consoles are based in DirectX so they put a team together to get this working. Sony's stratgey is to stream through customs hardware. To make this work they would have to add hardware to the PS5 which would raise cost. As I said though PS2 and PS1 is doable.
You mean like this thing they had no problem selling to the massive for 100 bucks completely unoptimized.
The overall issue is sony can make more not worrying about back compat while reselling the same games, remakes and franchise in the future. Therefore the "fanbase" hold the L. Only the stan's don't really care because they love the brand and image and those that do want improved services gotta just hope for the best...
