That... kind of comes with it. 

Sony has for some reason been dropping the ball on just releasing their PS1 load onto their main system. I for the life of me can't understand why they don't invest in this more. Seeing how they handled the PS Classic, I think they just don't care.

Even if they did it wouldnt be what we had on ps3/ psp. There's a very good chance the games were only licensed for those emulators and any modification nulls the licensing.

I imagine when they began the ps4 gen that the idea they would move forward with bc onto ps5 was not something being discussed. But since it is happening i csn see them doing another emulator (for ps4 with ps5?). But the games are going to have to be licensed again so it will be a while till its tbe same library.

A centralized platform that can play all legacy content is of immense value to me. It is one of those retro must haves and there isn't something like that for playstation yet. Instead of waiting for an FPGA solution, the PS5 can fill that role. And yes, that means physical disc compatibility.
