I can't understand why they have just announced that they are not planning on doing this.. It's seems so obvious that it needs to be done. If they can get ps3 games to run on it I'm sure they can get ps2 games on there

 They haven't got PS3 games to run on it - I'm not sure whether you mean Cross-Play (correct me if I'm wrong) which is basically where the PS3 runs the game and 'streams' it to your Vita, or if you mean stuff like Rayman / UMvC which are ports designed to run on the hardware.

 To get PS2 running on Vita the emulator would need to be made to do so - which while possible probably would take some engineering. It might be on Sony's 'to-do' list but it took the PSP 4 year to get PS1 games so I'd imagine they just don't want to make any promises they can't fufil.

That's Remote Play. Cross-Play is when you play Wipeout2048 on the vita against your mom who plays on the PS3 in multiplayer, and she wins.
