Surprising no one. Why are you acting like anyone would be upset by this news? Literally nobody expected them to add backwards compatibility with those gens.
Charles Miller
Don't care. My PC plays PS1, PS2, and PS3 games better than the consoles themselves did.

And you have to literally break the fucking law to do it, congrats, hope prison is worth 500 bucks :)

Honestly once it's hacked, it will be play all day Sony games, even some Vita probably. Vita emulation is making someone strides.
You'll even be able to emulate Switch at higher res.

I am also expecting 'technical' issues with the majority of the digital games owned on the PS4, until they are magically available for 'free' on Plus or Now.
Sure. A gray PS5 for the 30th anniversary of the PS
