The thing is. Although BC is very important for a vast majority of users and potential users of the PS3 at the moment. Once the system has been out for a couple of years and the list of great games grows, then wanting to play PS2 games on your PS3 will be a thought of the past.

Yes, people will want to play classic games in a year or two, but generally speaking when you want to do that now, you just pull out your old system and plug it in and play.

i agree i mean do any of you use 360 to play xbox 1 games? not a lot of people do because 360 has lots of games and ps3 and wii will also and then no one will use ps2 and GC games either.

The only reason the ps3 should be BC is because ps2 still outsells lots of other systems in hardware and software (whereas the GC and xbox 1 are completely dead). but that means the ps2 is still being made so go buy that one if you have to play ps2 games. im all for the ps3 price being dropped i love my ps3 and i love blu-ray so do what needs to be done sony!!!

 So you would agree if I said that it was stupid for Sony to try and sell PS1 games? It is an old game and no one would use a current system to play old games. The Virtual Console is an equally terrible idea because no one would want to play those old games without hooking up the old systems. BC is always a really nice feature. It would be stupid for them to cut it out completely.
