This was a long time coming. It's a quick way for Sony to save on the costs and in the long run most people won't care. If you really have to have PS1/PS2 compatibility, go get a PS2.

 good point.

similarly, the wii should do away with its GC controllers slots.  nobody buys GC games anyway these days, so why bother. 

apparently some VC games use them, but it really is a minor issue.

good for 360 that has none of this backward compatibility worries. 

 

 

I think this is a strange comment.  Uh, I have about 30 GC games.  And I still play them.  And I like using the controllers they games were designed for, as well as I like the GC wavebird controllers better than the classic controller.  If it's an issue of not liking to look at the controller slots, then never open the cover.  If it's about added cost to the Wii, it's a very low number I am sure, and worth it for those that want to play their GC games with their GC controllers.
