Ps4 games will eventually make it over to ps now at some point in time. It might not be within a year or 3 but they will just like ps3 games are. It increases the chances of making more money from games that didn't sell well. It is a smart way of doing it but in the end it is a similar thing as bringing xbox games to pc. You dont need a ps console to play games on ps now and that is the bottom line.

PS Now uses PS3s to stream the games, PS3 cannot play PS4 games, when the PS5 comes out PS4 games will start appearing on PS Now ideally. PS now allows the PS4 to have backwards compatibility, PS4 games cannot be played on PS Now QED.
PlayStation wants to sell hw, PS Now is intended to add value to the console, not take it away.It provides sw accesibility to consoles they either don't manufacturer any more or beginning to phase out. The sw sales they weren't getting because the PS4 and PS3 are backwards compatibile, they will now get, but PS Now will not hamper PS4 sales directly.
Xbox One exclusives on PC does.
Its that simple.

...and tv's and "other devices"
Defeats the whole purpose of buying a ps console since you can stream them on a tv or other devices. (which are not ps consoles)

you keep saying PS consoles, and I keep telling you that the hardware that plays these games natively, with the exception of the PS3 which is being phased out, is not manufactured any more. It also does not include the current console the Playstation 4, AS PS4 GAMES WILL NOT BE ON PS NOW, UNTIL PS5 IS LAUNCHED, YOU NEED A PS4 TO PLAY PS4 GAMES, the tv's and "other devices" that they allow the streaming to be on will supplement the software sales that they can longer recieve because the consoles aren't manufactured anymore.
EDIT: TO MAKE IT EVEN MORE CLEAR, PS NOW MEANS THAT YOU DON'T NEED A PS2/PSP/PS1/PSX?/ and eventually PS3, to play the PS games on those systems, IT GIVES THE PS4 BACKWARDS COMPATIBILITY THROUGH STREAMING, IF YOU BUY A TV WITH PS NOW, YOU CAN PLAY PS2/PSP/PS1/PSX?/ and eventually PS3. A PS4 IS REQUIRED FOR PS4 GAMES.

That is exactly what my whole point is. I was not talking about the ps4. I was talking about the ps3 console. You can buy a tv to stream ps now games so you wont need a ps3 for that. And that was my whole point all along. Ps games are coming to other "platforms"
