Just can't see why Sony doesn't just emulate the PS3 on the PS5 and roll the store into it's own separate section and continue to profit from the platform.

But good news for the older platforms, lets keep them around for as long as possible.

The PS3 is notoriously difficult to emulate due to its particular architecture. Also, from a business perspective, it's more profitable for Sony to remaster/remake any major PS3 release than just allow the original version to be bought as legacy content.

But yeah, at this point the PS5 should be able to play all PS content. It's powerful enough to do so, and if it's BC with the PS4, no reason not to be able to play Vita or other legacy platforms.
