It's kind of funny that if this is true, to me this is probably the biggest selling point of the PS4. It's not the only selling point but it definitely is a big one.

That's not native. They didn't go in and recreate all of the graphical elements of the games. That's a really good upscaler and engine over the existing 480p native game.

I'm pretty sure rendering resolution is, from a technical point of view, just a setting composed of two integers, and changing two integers shouldn't be very hard. Upscaling always leaves a blurrier image than native rendering, and AFAIK emulators leave a crips image. The reason upscaling is widely used is because there's not enough power to render stuff in higher resolutions but for PS1 and PS2 games, there's probably more than enough power because they require relatively little of it by today's standards.
