Now if Sony had really wanted to dominate consoles it would have kept Other OS for the slim and secretly gone to the hacker community and cunningly offered incentives to develop an emulator. The Linux communty already has a Windows emulator for PCs running Linux that may occasionally need to run proprietary Windows SW (like games for Windows). How much of a stretch would it have been to go from Window's emulator to 360 emulator? People keep saying it's really easy to port between PC and 360.

I'd buy Alan Wake and the 2 Mass Effects at least if there ever was a 360 emulator on PS3.

For me there'd be no point in trying to get a Wii emulator to include motion controls. The Wii games I'm interested in I'm pretty sure can all be played with classic controller.

It's a sweet idea but there aren't enough phats still running other OS to make it worth trying to do. Though if some creative hacker was really in to gaming they might try to do it just to see if it can be done. It would put the willies up the gaming industry if a current gen console was able to emulate other current gen consoles. It's one thing to emulate a competitor's console from 2 generations ago it's a whole other thing to do it within the same generation.

@ Mike_intellivision: Why would it get shut down by court order? What legal breach would occur? Is there some user agreement that says you'll only play Wii games on a Wii, or 360 games on a 360? An emulator isn't a breach of copyright over the original OS, it's an entirely different piece of software. What's the legal basis for sutting down a user created emulator?

The PS3 isnt strong enough to emulate the Wii. The Wii is a gamecubeX2

The gamecube is stronger then the PS2 and the PS3 is having trouble emulating that so

LOOOOOOL!!!!! the ps3 could easily handle 10 ps2 games at once (and im not over exagerating). the ps2 feature was not build very well into the ps3 thats why they had probems. then they took it out to reduce the cost of it. and the ps2 was stornger than the gamecube by quite alot actualy :P

Um.... No, the GameCube DESTROYED the ps2 in power. Just look at Resident Evil: REmake. It looks better than most modern games.



doesn't matter because any non-nintendo game gonna be ported to ps3 and released on psn ^^

It only emulates everything...!!



@ severance

It cannot "make" wii games go 1080p

The emulator just upscales it, which makes everything more crispy, nor properly better graphics.
