But they keep doing it over multiple generations. Common sense suggest it really is worthwhile and they hype PS2 releases on PS4.

However, Sony spent a fortune creating PS Now and it looks like a failure. I doubt MS spent a fortune creating 360 BC, certainly not the hundreds of millions invested in PS Now.

And yet PS2 BC on PS4 is pretty much an afterthought...

And PS Now isn't BC. Its a streaming service.

And whoever said MS spent a fortune working on a 360 emulator for the X1?

PS2 BC wouldn't exist if it wasn't worthwhile. Its an opportunity to sell old shit with little work. Sony is downplaying BC because MS has done something great, but Sony looks stupid because they have been doing it for generations and continue to do so. They even built a streaming service so PS4 owners could play PS3 games.

PS Now is their answer BC, https://support.us.playstation.com/articles/en_US/KC_Article/PS4-Backward-Compatibility/?

You misunderstood, the 360 emulator is probably handled by a small team and millions likely use it. While Sony might be bitter they spent a fortune on PS Now and its a failure.
